Method

Put the water and sugar in a saucepan and bring slowly to simmering point, ensure the sugar dissolves evenly.
Bubble for 2-3 minutes or until the liquid is slightly syrupy.
Add the lemon juice and cool, then mix with the blackberries and optional liqueur.
Put it all into a blender and whiz until smooth, then press the puree through a sieve to remove seeds.
Taste it for sweetness – you may wish to add little extra sugar or lemon juice.
Pour the puree into a freezer-proof container and freeze.
After two hours, remove the tub and stir the frozen outside bits into the middle, beating thoroughly.
Return to the freezer for another hour and then repeat the stirring.
Keep doing this until the mixture is freezing into crystals, which takes around 3 hours.
Serve in glasses.
