- In a bowl, combine berries with granulated sugar. Let stand for 30-45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes, until berries release their juices and form a syrup. Strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on berries to release juices. Discard solids. You should have about 1/2 cup blackberry syrup.
- Place 2 tablespoons blackberry syrup in each julep cup. Add 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 6 mint leaves to each cup. Muddle the mint leaves into the syrup in each cup just until lightly crushed (don't overdo it, or the mint will become bitter).
- Add 1/3 cup (about 2.5 ounces) bourbon to each cup and fill with crushed ice. Stir until the cup starts to look frosty on the outside. Add additional ice to the cup to fill. Serve, garnished with mint leaves, curled lemon peel, and additional berries, if desired.

- This recipe makes enough to fill 8 mint julep cups or 1 pitcher. Set aside 1/3 of the mint leaves. Take the remaining 2/3 of the leaves (1.5 ounces) and roughly chop. You should end up with around 2 cups chopped mint. Place in a saucepan along with the sugar and water. Whisk over medium heat and bring to a simmer, dissolving the sugar. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes, then remove from heat. Let the mint steep in the liquid until it returns to room temperature. Strain the mint liquid into a pitcher and chill.
- When ready to serve add the remaining mint sprigs to the pitcher, reserving 8 sprigs for garnishing the cups. Stir in lemon juice and bourbon.
- Fill 8 chilled mint julep cups with crushed ice. Pour a little over 1/3 cup of the mint lemon bourbon mixture into each cup. Top off the cups with club soda (about 2/3 cup each) and garnish each with a sprig of fresh mint. Topping off the cups individually in this way will help the club soda retain its refreshing sparkle. Alternatively, if you would rather not deal with making each drink separately, fill the pitcher with ice and fresh mint, then top off the pitcher with the club soda just before serving.
