Ingredients

  • 2 oz gin
  • ½ cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 oz lemon juice
  • ½ oz simple syrup
  • 4 oz club soda
  • 1 cup ice cubes

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a cocktail shaker, muddle 0.5 cup blueberries with 0.5 oz simple syrup until the berries release their juice, about 30 seconds.

  2. 2

    Add 2 oz gin, 1 oz lemon juice, and a handful of ice to the shaker. Shake vigorously for 15 seconds until well chilled.

  3. 3

    Fill a tall glass with 1 cup ice cubes. Strain the shaken mixture into the glass, leaving the muddled berry solids behind.

  4. 4

    Top the glass with 4 oz club soda, pouring slowly to preserve the fizz. Stir gently once to combine.

  5. 5

    Garnish with a few fresh blueberries and a lemon wheel if desired. Serve immediately.
