Blackberry Lemonade

We also made this for the Fourth of July dinner and it was super yumalicious. Hence the picture of the empty glass. :)

Blackberry Lemonade

4 C. water, divided
1 C. sugar
1 C. lemon juice
1 Tbsp grated lemon peel
1 C. fresh or frozen blackberries

In a large saucepan, bring 2 cups water and sugar to a boil. Boil for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat. Stir in the lemon juice, lemon peel and remaining water; cool slightly.
In a blender, combine 1 cup of lemon mixture and the blackberries; cover and process until blended. Strain and discard seeds. Pour blackberry mixture and remaining lemon mixture into a pitcher; stir well. Refrigerate until chilled. Serve over ice.
Yield: about 1-1/2 quarts
