"Blackberry Mojito" 

"Blackberry Mojito" 

What You'll Need: Collins glass, ice, blackberries. mint, granulated sugar, vodka, soda water, and a lime. 

How to Make It: Add a 1/4 of a cup of blackberries, 6 mint leaves, and a tsp. of granulated sugar to the bottom of a Collins glass. Muddle ever so slightly. The point is not to smash the berries, but extract their flavor. Next, add 2 oz. of vodka and stir. Then top with ice and soda water. Finally, garnish with lime, mint, and a blackberry. Enjoy!

Hello! My name is Nathan. I've always believed I would meet that special someone in one of two places; either a record store or a book store. Maybe I need to amend? I moved to Seattle in February of 2011 from Oklahoma City (Try and not hold the Sonics/Thunder thing against me). I knew I wanted to work for a nonprofit and go to grad school. Within a couple of months, I was doing both. During the day, I work as a Fund Developer and Community Relations Manager for a nonprofit in Kent and at night I try to stay as busy as possible volunteering, trying new restaurants, finding hidden bars and exploring Seattle. The past few years has been both terrifying and exhilarating. I have done things on my own I didn’t think were within my capability. I love being outdoors. On any given weekend, I can be found hiking, on a road trip, volunteering, at a museum, seeing a movie (I see a lot of them). I am passionate about nonprofit work. I feel called to leave a mark on this world. Nothing against those who enjoy making tons of money, I just need to know I am making a difference.
