Ingredients
Scale
Fresh Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups frozen blueberries
- 1 cup fresh orange juice
- 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
- Fresh blueberries (for garnish)
- Lime wedges (for garnish)
Sweeteners and Syrups:
- 2–3 tablespoons honey or agave syrup (adjust to taste)
Additional Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup sparkling water or lemon-lime soda
- Ice (optional, for extra thickness)
- Sugar or salt (for rimming the glass)
Instructions
- Prepare the glass presentation by gently running a lime wedge around the rim, creating a sticky surface. Carefully coat the moistened edge with a layer of granulated sugar or salt for a decorative and flavorful touch.
- Select a high-powered blender and add fully frozen blueberries to ensure a thick, frosty consistency. Pour in freshly squeezed orange and lime juices to enhance the fruity profile.
- Drizzle honey or agave syrup into the blender for natural sweetness. Include a generous handful of ice cubes to amplify the chilled texture and create a smooth, velvety mixture.
- Activate the blender and pulse until the ingredients transform into a vibrant, uniform liquid with a frothy appearance and no visible fruit chunks.
- Transfer the blueberry mixture into a clean pitcher, preparing for the final refreshing element. Just before serving, gently incorporate sparkling water or soda to maintain maximum effervescence.
- Carefully pour the mocktail into the prepared glasses, allowing the liquid to cascade smoothly without disturbing the sugared rim.
- Elevate the visual appeal by adorning each glass with a few plump fresh blueberries, delicate lime slices, or a fragrant mint sprig for a sophisticated finishing touch.
Notes
- Customize the rim coating by mixing sugar with a pinch of salt or zest for an extra flavor dimension.
- Select ripe, high-quality blueberries to ensure maximum natural sweetness and vibrant color in the mocktail.
- Replace honey with maple syrup or stevia for alternative sweetening options that cater to different dietary preferences.
- Use frozen blueberries for an ultra-thick, slushy texture without diluting the drink’s intense berry flavor.
