I’ve been on the fruity cocktail train this summer and I’m not sorry about it at all!:D A regular here how much a little muddled fruit can truly enhance a drink.

I bought a TON of blueberries a few weeks ago since they were so cheap. I’ve been baking up a storm with them and even froze a few to make my regular Blueberry Smoothie. BUT, I figured it would be nice to incorporate some of them into a cocktail. ENTER: this especially simple Blueberry Mojito.

This is quite similar to a familiar mojito. At the same time that the mint is muddled, we’re going to throw in 1/2 cup of fresh (frozen work too!) blueberries and muddle them in with the mint. The goal is to get the nice and crushed but there will still be some larger chunks of blueberry left over.

You can keep those chunks in your drink OR strain them out if you’d prefer. I typically only leave them in. More often than not, they only sink to the bottom of the glass anyways and don’t genuinely bother me.
