Try making a Blueberry Vodka Sour today; enjoy its refreshing twist.
Make Blueberry Syrup (if making at home):
Combine 1/2 cup of blueberries, 1/2 cup of sugar, and 1/2 cup of water in a small saucepan.
Bring to a simmer and cook until the sugar has dissolved and the blueberries are soft.
Strain the mixture to remove the blueberry skins and let it cool.
Prepare the Cocktail:
In a shaker, combine the vodka, fresh lemon juice, and blueberry syrup.
Add ice cubes to fill the shaker halfway.
Shake well until the outside of the shaker feels cold.
Serve:
Strain the mixture into a chilled glass filled with fresh ice.
Garnish with fresh blueberries and a lemon slice or twist.
Optional: For a bit of sparkle, top off the cocktail with a splash of club soda.
Pro Tips
