Ingredients:

1/2 cup extra fine granulated sugar 1 cup blueberries 1 cup squeezed lemon juice lemonade flavored sparkling water 1 cup water 1 lemon sliced thin, round vodka as desired

STEP 1:  Make Simple Syrup

Combine sugar and 1 cup water in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved.  Stir in blueberries and bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until blueberries have broken down, about 3-4 minutes. Strain blueberry mixture through a cheesecloth or fine sieve; let cool.

STEP 2:  Mix Drink

Add fresh blueberries and 1 thin lemon slice to the bottom of your cup.  Fill rest of the glass with ice. Add a couple tablespoons of the blueberry simple syrup.  Add 1-2 tablespoons of lemon juice. Add vodka, to taste, typically 1/2-1 full shot (60ml), if desired. Top off with sparkling lemonade.
