Equipment

  • Tall glass or mason jar if you’re extra cute
  • Muddler or wooden spoon
  • Spoon or straw for stirring
  • Citrus juicer optional but fancy

Ingredients
  

  • 1/3 cup fresh blueberries  or a small handful — eyeball it, babe
  • 8–10 fresh mint leaves  don’t be shy!
  • Juice of 1 lime  fresh is best, always
  • 1–2 tsp sugar  depends how sweet you like it
  • 2 oz white rum  or skip it for a mocktail moment
  • Soda water or sparkling water to top it off
  • Ice  a whole lotta it
  • Extra mint & blueberries for garnish  because we’re fancy like that

Instructions
 

  • Muddle like you mean it
    Drop those blueberries, mint, lime juice, and sugar into your favorite glass.Then take a muddler — or the end of a wooden spoon if you’re like me and never know where your tools are — and just smash. Not like rage-smash, but cute-smash. You want those blueberries to pop and that mint to release all its minty glory.
  • Add the good stuff
    Pour in your rum and throw in some ice. I like to fill my glass almost to the top because I’m dramatic like that.
  • Top it off + taste test
    Add soda water until it’s bubbly and beautiful.Give it a little stir (or swirl it with your straw like I do), taste it, and adjust if you want more sugar, more lime, or more… rum (no judgment).
  • Make it pretty
    Add a few mint leaves and blueberries on top. If you’ve got a lime slice? Go for it. Live your best cocktail life.

Notes

  • Fresh blueberries are ideal, but thawed frozen ones totally work.
  • You can skip the alcohol and still get that summer glow.
  • Don’t skip the muddling — that’s where the flavor magic happens.
  • Tastes best with someone you can vent to, barefoot on a balcony.
  • Store mint leaves in water in the fridge for longer freshness — future you will thank you.
