For the Syrup (4 servings)
- ½ cup water
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ cup lime juice
- 1 habanero diced
- 1 cup fresh blackberries
For one Maragarita
- 1 ½ ounces white tequila
- ½ ounce triple sec
- ¼ ounce lime juice
- 2 ounces blackberry-habanero syrup
- Salt and lime zest to rim the glass

In a small pot, over medium heat, add all syrup ingredients except the blackberries. Bring to a boil and remove from heat.
Place blackberries and syrup into a small food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
Place in the refrigerator until ready to use. It will last up to a week.
When ready to serve, strain the blackberry-habanero syrup. This will produce about 1 cup or enough for 4 drinks.

Rim the glass with salt and lime zest and fill with ice.
Pour the margarita into the glass and garnish with a lime slice and blackberry.
