Blueberry Limoncellos - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 cup fresh blueberries
3 tablespoons simple syrup (or sugar)
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup chilled limoncello (or lemonade, regular or sparkling)
3/4 - 1 cup chilled club soda (or sparkling water)
Preparation
-
To make simple syrup combine equal parts water and sugar stirred over heat and brought to a boil, then cooled to room temperature.
In a blender, whirl blueberries, simple syrup, and lemon juice with just enough limoncello to make a smooth slush.
(For a firmer slush, pour into a small bowl and freeze for up to 2 hours.
To store up to 2 weeks, put slush in a resealable freezer bag, seal, and freeze. To use, let stand at room temperature a few minutes to soften slightly.).
Divide berry slush among 4 tall glasses (8 to 12oz. size), add equal portions limoncello; fill with club soda.
Garnish with fresh berries on skewers; swizzle as you sip.
