   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    4       c            Fresh Blackberries
    1       c            Water
                         Sugar
    2 1/2   c            Whipping cream
                         Blackberries for garnish
                         Mint leaves for garnish
 
   Line strainer with two layers of dampened cheesecloth. Set over large
   bowl. Combine berries * and water in medium saucepan. Slowly bring to
   boil. Reduce heat and simmer gently until soft, about 10 minutes.
   Pour into cheesecloth-lined strainer. Let stand until juice has
   drained into bowl, about 30 minutes. Gently squeeze pulp to extract
   remaining juice. Measure berry juice into heavy medium saucepan. Add
   1 cup sugar for each cup juice. Cook over low heat, swirling pan
   occasionally, until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and boil syrup 2
   minutes. Cool completely. Mix 2 1/2 cups syrup with cream.
   Refrigerate until well chilled. Process blackberry mixture in ice
   cream maker according to manufacturer’s instructions; ice cream will
   be soft. Freeze in covered container several hours to mellow flavors.
   Garnish with fresh berries and mint leaves.
    *Can substitute unsweetened frozen blackberries, thawed.
