Blueberry Daiquiri Cocktail Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 oz white rum
- 1 oz fresh lime juice
- 1 oz homemade blueberry syrup
- Ice cubes
- Fresh blueberries and mint, for garnish
For the blueberry syrup:
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup water
Method
- Combine the rum, lime juice, and blueberry syrup in a shaker filled with ice.
- Shake vigorously for 10-15 seconds, or until the shaker feels very cold.
- Strain the cocktail into a chilled coupe glass.
To make the blueberry syrup
- Combine the blueberries, sugar, and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, until the sugar has dissolved and the blueberries have burst.
- Reduce the heat to low and simmer the mixture for 10-15 minutes.
- Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl or jar, pressing down on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
- Let the syrup cool to room temperature.
