Wild Blueberry Gin Fizzers


Blueberry Gin Fizzers are perfect for summer entertaining.  They are so easy to make, and they have the ideal blend of sweet and tart flavors. 


 I was gifted 8 pounds of beautiful blueberries. My husband will eat them sometimes, the kids don't like them in any capacity. That left me with about 7.5 pounds of berries to use and enjoy. Naturally I had them on my cereal. I added them to oatmeal. I ate them on cake. I baked a small pie.  I froze half of them... I still had blueberries left! What is a girl to do? Why not drink them!?

This cocktail recipe is so easy to make. It is refreshing and tasty, making it perfect for summer entertaining. The flavor of gin is wonderful mixed with blueberries!


Ingredients:

2 ounces of fresh blueberries
Lime wedges
Sprite
Gin; I like Beefeater
Ice


Directions:

With a spoon,  or a muddler, smash the blueberries.
Add ice to the glass.
Add Sprite.
Top with 1 ounce of Beefeater Gin.
Squeeze the juice of a lime wedge into the glass.
Garnish with a lime if desired.
