What is the bartender tip for a Blackberry Moscow Mule?

Build it in the glass: the syrup is dense — mix the vodka, lime, and syrup before the ginger beer, or it stays at the bottom. 20 ml syrup to 20 ml lime is the sweet spot; if your syrup is very sweet, drop it by 5 ml. Ginger beer, not ginger ale: the ginger's bite holds up the blackberry. Stir only as much as needed. A copper mug helps; a highball filled to the brim with ice works too. Fresh blackberries are just garnish, not muddled. The catalog already has the classic Moscow Mule and the Raspberry Moscow Mule (shaken jam and ginger foam); the Blackberry Gin Fizz is lengthened with soda, not ginger beer.
