This black pepper, blackberry, and vodka cocktail, or “Black Beauty,” as I like to call it, is simple to make but complex in flavor. The hint of black pepper really makes this drink. Trust me, don’t skip this ingredient; it pairs so perfectly with the blackberries and fresh mint. This drink is sure to become a new summertime favorite.
