\u2018Tis the season to be enjoying the last glimmers of summer<\/a>, while also looking forward to all the fantastic flavors of fall–and that includes fall drinks! This cocktail combines the best of both seasons: Blackberries are a distinctly summer fruit, while figs and vanilla rum signal that fall<\/a> is just around the corner. Plus, as ready as we fall fanatics may be for the weather to cool off, we are typically not graced with cooler temperatures right away. So, a chilled cocktail is exactly what we all need while waiting for true autumn to arrive!<\/p>\n\"blackberry\n

This cocktail is also perfect for special occasions<\/a> and events<\/a>, as it’s both flavorful and lovely to look at. Hosting a\u00a0bridal shower<\/a> or rehearsal dinner<\/a> (hello, fall wedding<\/a> season)? Make the Blackberry Fig Rum & Soda your party’s signature sip. It\u2019s so simple: Just muddle your chopped figs and blackberries together with a bit of sugar and vanilla rum. Vanilla rum is incredibly smooth and delicious, but you can add a splash of regular vanilla if you can\u2019t find vanilla rum near you. Strain the drink, pressing all those beautiful fruit juices out of your figs and blackberries<\/a>, and finish it off with ice and club soda.<\/p>\n

Halve it to make just one drink or multiply it to make more as desired–and for a virgin take on this fall cocktail, just sub out the vanilla rum for cream soda. Either way, this is the perfect drink to enjoy as we welcome autumn’s arrival (in our favorite moody floral dresses<\/a>, of course). Scroll on to get the full recipe–and happy sipping!<\/p>\n
