I'd like to do know how to do the following:

Blockquote A

blank line that's not part of either block, visually distinguishing two different blockquotes

Blockquote B

Experiments

Without adding a text in between it looks like:

Blockquote A

Blockquote B

I tried separating them by adding a line, like so:

Blockquote A

Blockquote B

But visually, I think this is misleading because it can imply that the quotes are from the same source (when they aren't per se). So I prefer to show a blank line between the blockquotes.

Research

I've found a related question: How to add empty new line in block quote?. But these answers don't address what I want to do, I can't seem to find the way to do this seemingly simple trick. I've already looked into the Markup help, but I might be overlooking it. Any help is much appreciated!

I use the trick to add a <!> in between:

Blockquote A

Blockquote B

    Accepting this one, because this way looks the most tight and is easy to remember. Also see these answers for more methods.

  • <!-- MD028/no-blanks-blockquote --> between them should work if you want to ignore the rule Another approach is to use backslash as a <br />
