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.
