Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Fresh blueberries
- 3 tablespoons Grenadine
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 1.5 tablespoons Simple syrup
- 1 cup Chilled club soda
- 1 cup Crushed ice
- 0.25 cup Fresh strawberries, sliced
- 3 pieces Fresh mint leaves
- 1 piece Lemon slice (for garnish)
Instructions
In a small bowl, muddle the fresh blueberries with grenadine until the blueberries are well crushed and release their vibrant juices.
Fill a tall glass halfway with crushed ice.
Strain the muddled blueberry and grenadine mixture directly over the ice, using a fine mesh strainer or cocktail shaker to remove solids.
In a separate glass or small mixing bowl, combine the lemon juice and simple syrup. Stir well to combine.
Pour the lemon juice mixture into the glass over the existing blueberry-grenadine base.
Slowly top off the drink with chilled club soda, pouring gently to retain the layered effect of the colors.
Carefully add the sliced fresh strawberries on top as a garnish, followed by a few fresh mint leaves for an aromatic finish.
Garnish the rim of the glass with a lemon slice and serve immediately with a straw, if desired.
