Cooking steps

1. We clean the blackberry berries from the stems, place them in cheesecloth, and squeeze out the juice — the small seeds remain in the cloth. In principle, you can just mash the blackberries with a wooden spoon along with the seeds — it's not a big deal. However, it's better to squeeze the grapes through cheesecloth and throw away the remaining seeds and skin.

   Required ingredients:

   • Blackberry: 0.5 kg
   • Grape: 300 g

2. We mix blackberry and grape juice. We thoroughly crush cilantro, garlic, chili pepper, and salt in a mortar. In a pot, we mix the greens with the juice — it's ready. Blackberry is sweet, unripe grape is sour; it tastes incredibly good, especially with tabaka chicken.
