To help blend the flavors you could make a simple syrup ahead of time. And use it in place of the sugar. I normally make mine with equal parts sugar to water then heat till dissolved. I also normally add a quick small squeeze of honey or agave nectar to the syrup as the sugar is dissolving to give it a slight delicate flavor.
