Makvali is a traditional blackberry sauce originating from Georgia. It's usually made with a combination of blackberries, minced hot peppers, chopped garlic, coriander, dill, salt, and either unripe sour grapes or lemon juice. The blackberries are forced through a sieve into a bowl, while the hot peppers, garlic, and salt are mashed into a paste and mixed with the blackberries.

The herbs are finely minced and stirred into the mixture with lemon juice or unripe sour grapes. The sauce is typically served at room temperature and it's most commonly used with roast chicken dishes.
