Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 cup water
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 cups cold water or sparkling water
- Ice cubes
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a blender, combine the blueberries, honey, and 1 cup of water. Blend until the mixture is smooth, and the tangy aroma of the blueberries fills the air.
- Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a pitcher to remove the blueberry skins. This step ensures a smooth texture in your juice.
- Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice to the pitcher, stirring well to integrate the tangy citrus with the sweet blueberry blend.
- Pour in the cold water or sparkling water, depending on your preference for a still or fizzy drink. Mix gently to combine.
- Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the blueberry honey juice over the top. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for an extra touch of freshness.
Helpful Tips and Variations
- Substitute agave nectar or maple syrup for honey if you prefer a different sweetener or are catering to vegan dietary needs.
- For a touch of extra zing, add a few slices of fresh ginger to the blender.
- Serve in chilled glasses to keep your drink refreshingly cool longer.
Storage and Substitutions
- Refrigerate any leftover blueberry juice in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- If blueberries are out of season, frozen blueberries work just as well as fresh.
- Lime juice can be used in place of lemon juice for a different citrus flavor.
