Looking for ways to use up an abundance of blueberries? Try our blueberry jam bars, broccoli, cauliflower, blueberry slaw, or blueberry balsamic baked beets. The fruity blueberry syrup is poured over ice, then stirred with freshly squeezed lemon juice and water. Make a double or triple batch of the syrup and store it in the fridge so you can quickly mix up a pitcher of this hydrating, hot-day drink that everyone will love!
Blueberries – fresh blueberries are best. Sugar – granulated sugar to sweeten up the fruity syrup. Water – to make the blueberry syrup. Lemon juice – a generous amount of fresh lemon juice gives this recipe a wonderful tangy taste.
Muddle in some herbs like lavender, mint, or thyme for an herbaceous twist Switch up the berries like in our blackberry lemonade. Swap the sugar for a naturally sweet version using honey or maple syrup Add more or less sugar depending on your desired sweetness Skip the straining step and keep the skins and seeds in for all the antioxidants and health benefits Turn it into an adult version by adding a splash of your favorite spirit like vodka or bourbon
We also love serving it with summer patio snacks like our summer peach salsa or corn guacamole and a bowl of salty tortilla chips.
