When restaurants opened back up, my first dinner out with a friend included a delicious Blueberry Mojito! It was light and refreshing! Now that the weather is warming up and I’m growing mint it will probably be a new go-to happy hour cocktail.
My version includes vodka instead of rum. I find it makes it more refreshing! Hope you like it too! Cheers!
Gather ingredients:
Muddle blueberries with sugar. If you don’t have a muddler, you can use the bottom of a wooden spoon.
Top with mint and MUDDLE MUDDLE MUDDLE.
Add vodka! If you’re doing a mocktail, ginger beer would be a great replacement for vodka.
Top with ice.
Top ice with sparkling water.
Garnish with mint, lime, and a few blueberries.
Sip sip!
The muddled blueberries make it purple!
Happy golden cocktail hour!
Add a blueberry mojito to your next happy hour!
