Place the blackberries, sugar, and water in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the blackberries break down into a pulp (if necessary, use a potato masher to mash the fruit) and the sugar dissolves.
16 ounces blackberries, 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup water
Remove from heat, and stir in the lemon juice. Strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove any thick parts.
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
Use the syrup over pancakes, desserts, ice cream, or in drinks.
