Ingredients
- 170 g blueberries
- 210 ml water
- ¼ lime juice only
- 200 ml tonic water
- 60 ml gin
- ice cubes
Instructions
- Add blueberries, lime juice and water to a small cooking pan.
- Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes until much of the water has evaporated. This will create a blueberry syrup.
- Press the blueberry syrup through a sieve into a large glass. Set aside.
- Add ice cubes to your cocktail glasses.
- Then add tonic water and gin.
- Finish by pouring in your blueberry syrup.
- Top off with lime slices and lime zest if desired.
Notes
- Feel free to swap lime for lemon or orange if preferred.
- Adjust the alcohol level to taste. Or, leave it out altogether to make a delicious mocktail.
- If you're hosting a party, make the blueberry syrup ahead. This way you will have less work on the day of the party.
- Don't discard the leftover blueberries. Place in an airtight container and use in porridge, smoothies, bakes, cakes, etc.
- Use any gin that you like.
- Don't substitute tonic water for soda water.
