The Best Blueberry Lemonade
Ready to up your lemonade game? This blueberry lemonade is the latest addition to my collection of flavored lemonades here on the blog. It’s so pretty, flavorful, and simple to make! And it tastes SO much better than the store-bought kind.
Why try my recipe:
Refreshing flavor: It’s a bright and summery twist on a traditional homemade lemonade. Easy: We’ll simply cook the berries into a syrup, strain, and combine with lemon juice and water–that’s it! Gorgeous color: Cooking the berries draws out their juices and creates a beautiful color. I found that simply pureeing raw berries created a not-so-pretty color–more on this below. Perfect for spiking: Add a splash of your favorite vodka or gin for an adult treat!
This recipe uses the same preparation method as my raspberry lemonade, which means we will be creating a berry simple syrup. This method is not quite as quick as the one used in my strawberry lemonade, but it’s every bit as tasty and worth the extra minutes!
What You Need
Seriously, just 4 ingredients. Besides water, you will need: SAM’S TIP: To get the moist juice out of your lemons, try rolling them between your palm and your counter before cutting and squeezing. Microwaving your lemons will also give you more juice. Here is the citrus tool I like to use for juicing! Remember, this is just an overview of the ingredients I used and why.
