It’s blueberry season and I can’t get enough of these sweet juicy antioxidant powerhouses. Fresh blueberries and granola in the morning, blueberry scones, blueberry and arugula salad, blueberry cobbler and to top it off a blueberry basil vodka martini. It’s a blueberry festival!

Ingredients

  • 2 handfuls of fresh blueberries
  • 6-8 basil leaves
  • 1 -2 tsp of lime juice
  • 1 tsp simple syrup (can omit if you prefer)
  • 2 oz vodka
  • 1 oz St Germain
  • splash of club soda or sparkling water or prosecco

Instructions

  1. You will need a cocktail shaker and a muddler. Place blueberries, basil leaves, lime juice, and simple syrup in the cocktail shaker. Muddle all ingredients well. Add vodka and St Germain. Then add a little ice to chill the ingredients. Cover cocktail shaker, shake well, then pour through a strainer into a icy martini glass. Top with a splash of sparkling water or prosecco. Garnish with basil leaves and a couple of fresh blueberries. Cheers!
