Steps:
- In a saucepot over high heat, bring the water to a boil with the piloncillo and sugar until they are dissolved. Add the masa and whisk so it dissolves and doesn't form any lumps. Let thicken.
- Purée the blackberries in a food processor, add to the mixture, and cook for a couple of minutes; do not boil too long or the drink will lose color and that fresh blackberry flavor. Enjoy it while it's warm. If you have any left over it will thicken quite a bit; you can store it in the refrigerator and simply add a bit of water to the mixture when you reheat it.
