• 🫐 ¼ cup fresh or frozen blueberries

• 🍋 1 tablespoon lemon juice, freshly squeezed

• 🍯 1 tablespoon honey or simple syrup (adjust to taste)

• 🧊 1 cup ice

🍃 For Garnish:

• 🍑 Peach slices

• 🫐 Whole blueberries

• 🌿 Fresh mint sprigs

• ❄️ Crushed ice or sphere cubes

Preparation:

Step 1: Muddle the Fruit

In a cocktail shaker or mixing glass, add peach chunks, blueberries, and lemon juice. Muddle well using a muddler or spoon to break down the fruit and release juices.

Step 2: Add Sweetener

Stir in honey or simple syrup to the muddled mixture until well combined.

Step 3: Shake or Stir

If making a cocktail, add vodka or peach schnapps and some ice. Shake or stir to chill and combine the flavors.

Step 4: Strain or Pour

Strain into an ice-filled glass for a smoother sip, or pour everything directly in for a rustic fruit-forward version.

Step 5: Top with Bubbles

Top each glass with sparkling water, soda, or prosecco. Stir gently to combine.

Step 6: Garnish & Serve

Add a few blueberries, a peach slice, and a sprig of mint for a fresh and colorful finish.

Variation:

🍹 Peach Bellini Pop – Swap sparkling water for prosecco, and add peach nectar for extra sweetness.

🍸 Bourbon Blue Pop – Use bourbon instead of vodka for a rich twist.

🧊 Frozen Pop – Blend the fruit mixture with ice for a slushie-style drink.

🫐 Lavender Blueberry Pop – Add a splash of lavender syrup for a floral touch.

🥤 Mocktail version – Use flavored sparkling water or lemon-lime soda for a booze-free bubbly treat.

🍓 Berry Peach Punch – Add strawberries or raspberries and serve in a punch bowl.

COOKING Note:

These drinks are super forgiving, but here are some pro tips for flawless execution:
