I was out shopping at Walmart the other day, when I spotted some limited edition Canada Dry Blackberry Ginger Ale® (located with the other 2 liter beverages in the soda aisle). Blackberry is one of my most favorite flavors, so I couldn’t wait to give it a try!
The Canada Dry Ginger Ale® flavors are delicious and refreshing on their own, but I knew from my first sip of the Canada Dry Blackberry Ginger Ale® that it would make an incredible fresh blackberry + lime fizz cocktail – perfect for springtime!
What You’ll Need:
- 1/2 cup Fresh Blackberries
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 cup Canada Dry Blackberry Ginger Ale®
- 2 oz. Vodka
- Juice of Half a Lime
- Ice
Instructions:
- In a food processor or blender, combine fresh blackberries and water. Strain with a fine mesh strainer to remove seeds.
- Combine blackberry puree with Canada Dry Blackberry Ginger Ale®, vodka, and lime juice. Mix well.
- Pour into two ice-filled glasses and garnish with a lime wheel and sprig of basil.
Yum! I foresee lots of these blackberry + lime fizz cocktails carrying us through spring and on into summertime!
(Psst…it tastes great as a non-alcoholic beverage, too!) My kids finished off the rest of the bottle of Canada Dry Blackberry Ginger Ale® by making alcohol-free blackberry + lime fizzes for themselves. So delicious!
These drinks are great for those times when unexpected guests drop by or when you decide to host a spontaneous Mom’s Night In. They look impressive and fancy, but they’re really quick and easy!

I love how simple this cocktail is! I can see myself enjoying it while the kids are outside playing after dinner. I haven’t tried the new blackberry ginger ale and now I have an excuse to. Thank you for sharing this at Wine’d Down Wednesday.

I just saw this Blackberry Ginger Ale recently on another blog!! I’m going to have to go check that out. And this cocktail sounds like the perfect vessel to try it in!! I’m also loving the fact that it doesn’t take too many ingredients for this, either. Perfect for this changing weather and spring season!! I have a linkup going on today and every Thursday called #ThurstyThursday. If you get the chance, I would love it if you stopped by and linked this up!! hopelesslyeverafter.blogspot.com
