Blueberry Blackberry Spice Syrup
From gourmet, july 2007. A lovely fruit syrup made from my favorites for summer. Best made with fresh picked. i would have just made a batch but the all the blackberries and blueberries didn't quite make it home... Come to think of it the pails of blackberries never did quite make it all home...
