Ingredients

For the berry orange syrup:

  • 1 pint blueberries
  • 1/2 pint raspberries
  • 4 to 5 fresh thyme sprigs
  • Juice from 1 orange

For the martini:

  • 1 ounce berry orange syrup
  • 2 ounces vodka
  • 1/2 ounce triple sec
  • 1/2 ounce simple syrup

Instructions

For the berry syrup:

  1. Bring the blueberries, raspberries, thyme, and orange juice to a boil in a small saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low.
  2. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries soften and blueberries begin to burst, about 3 minutes.
  3. Pour through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth-lined strainer and press the berries to get out all the juice. Discard the seeds, skins, and thyme. Chill syrup until ready to use.

For the martini:

  1. Add berry syrup, vodka, triple sec, and simple syrup to a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
  2. Shake vigorously and strain into a chilled martini glass.
  3. Garnish with an orange slice if desired.
