- 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 cup blackberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 cup sparkling water (plain or lightly flavored)
- 2 tablespoons honey (optional, to taste)

Instructions
1. In a blender, combine the grape juice, blueberries, blackberries, lemon juice, and honey (if using). Blend on high until smooth and well combined.
2. Place a fine-mesh strainer over a large bowl or pitcher and pour the blender mixture through the strainer to remove pulp and seeds, pressing with a spatula to extract as much liquid as possible.
3. Fill four serving glasses halfway with ice cubes.
4. Divide the strained juice mixture evenly among the glasses, filling them about three-quarters of the way full.
5. Top each glass with sparkling water, gently stirring to combine.
