    Last weekend Thomas and I were out on a double date when we happened across a cute little bar in Santa Monica that made the most excellent cocktails. I strayed from my go-to drink of a Moscow Mule and instead opted for this heavenly number. I've dubbed it the Blackberry Pineapple Smash and we've recreated it a few times since.

    It's a simple cocktail of muddled blackberries, clear rum, fresh lime juice, pineapple juice and a touch of mint. Done. Easy as that. Shake, shake, shake and then it's done. It's 100% my new go-to spring cocktail of choice. And if you need me this weekend, I'll be sipping these poolside while trying desperately to work on my tan!

    • 6 ounces pineapple juice
    • club soda

    Instructions
     

    • Muddle the blackberry, mint and lime juice in the bottom of a cocktail shaker.
    • Add the tequila and pineapple juice, along with a few pieces of ice, and secure the lid onto the shaker. Shake for 30 seconds until the liquid is chilled.

    Notes

    I recommend picking up a cocktail shaker and a few other supplies. You can enjoy happy hour at any hour for a fraction of the cost.

    1. We made these with one variation - we used pineapple soda instead of pineapple juice and club soda. I bet they were slightly sweeter than this recipe, but they were still really tasty! I wonder if this recipe would work well subbing strawberries instead of blackberries. (And yes, I realize that it's not summer right now, but hey, a good cocktail is a good cocktail no matter what time of year!)

    2. These cocktails deeeeeefinitely have me dreaming of Friday! Gonna get smashed...! Er. I mean, the blackberries and pineapples are getting smashed 😉

    3. Wow, those look soooo yummy! And pretty 🙂 Definitely trying this for our next girls' night. Thanks for sharing this 🙂

    4. I want to hurt you that you will be anywhere working on your tan. I guess I'll make myself one of these beauties and try to forget you just said that.

    5. wow girl, these drinks are GORGEOUS!! they have all the ingredients for a great drink! can you make them for me next time I'm in LA?? 🙂

    6. I LOVE everything about this drink! Gorgeous color. Love the fruit blend. And love any excuse to make it feel like summer!!!!

    7. I love it when a bar/restaurant sparks cocktail inspiration. And this is definitely a perfect pool-side libation. Cheers!
