Ingredients
-
???? ½ cup blueberries (fresh or frozen, plus extra for garnish)
-
???? 1½ cups ice (crushed preferred)
-
???? 3 oz vodka (citrus or blueberry flavored works great!)
-
???? 1 oz blue curaçao – for citrus notes and bold color
-
???? 1 oz fresh lemon juice – adds brightness and balance
-
???? 1 tbsp simple syrup or blueberry syrup – sweetens and deepens flavor
-
???? ½ cup lemon-lime soda OR energy drink – for that sparkling “electric” edge
-
???? Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
-
???? Edible glitter, blue sanding sugar, or LED ice cubes (for fun effects)
Instructions
In a cocktail shaker or mason jar, muddle the blueberries with simple syrup until juicy and broken down.
Add vodka, blue curaçao, lemon juice, and ice into the shaker. Shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until chilled.
Double strain into two tall glasses filled with crushed ice or over a single large cube for a slower melt.
Top each glass with lemon-lime soda or an energy drink like Red Bull Blue Edition. Gently stir once to blend the layers.
Garnish with mint, a few whole blueberries, and an optional sparkle of edible glitter or glowing ice cube. Serve with a straw and let the dance begin!
Notes
-
Blue curaçao is both colorful and citrusy—don’t skip it unless you’re using a custom syrup or coloring.
-
For deeper blueberry flavor, boil blueberries with sugar and water to create a homemade blueberry syrup.
