In a medium saucepan, combine the fresh blackberries, maple syrup, water, and granulated sugar.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally and gently mash the blackberries with the back of a spoon to release their juices.
After simmering, stir in the lemon juice for a hint of brightness and balance.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and cold water to form a slurry.
Slowly pour the cornstarch slurry into the saucepan while stirring constantly to avoid clumping. Continue cooking for about 1-2 minutes, or until the syrup thickens to your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the syrup cool slightly. If a smoother syrup is preferred, strain it through a fine mesh sieve to remove the blackberry seeds.
Transfer the syrup to a heatproof jar or container. Serve warm over pancakes, waffles, or your favorite breakfast treats.
Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat gently before serving.
