Use high-quality moonshine for a smoother, less harsh flavor.
Fresh lemon juice gives a brighter, cleaner taste than bottled versions.
Shake well to aerate and blend the ingredients evenly.
For added flair, lightly muddle one or two blackberries in the shaker before adding ice.
Chill your glass in advance for a frosty presentation.
Adjust sweetness by increasing or reducing the simple syrup slightly.
