Yes, blueberry simple syrup can be made 1-2 weeks in advance and stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
Over-muddling can break down the berries completely and release excessive tannins, making the drink bitter. Muddle gently just until berries release their juices.
Frozen blackberries work but will dilute the drink as they thaw. Thaw them first and drain excess liquid, or use fresh berries for best results.
Best consumed right after assembly while the ice is cold and the energy drink is carbonated. Sitting more than 10-15 minutes will dilute flavors as ice melts.
