Ingredients
To kick off this classic cocktail recipe, we recommend gathering the necessary ingredients so they are at the ready. For a pitcher, (about 8 small drinks or 4 large drinks) you’re going to need:
- 2 cups of blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- 2 lemons
- 4 cups sparkling lemon water or lemon Italian soda
- 2 cups vodka
- ½ cup simple syrup
- Sprig of rosemary for garnish
Classic Cocktail Recipe: Step 1
- In the pitcher, muddle your lemons, blueberries, and simple syrup until about half of the blueberries are smashed and the lemons have released their juices. No muddler? No problem. Your favorite wooden spoon will do the trick.
Classic Cocktail Recipe: Step 2
- Now comes the fun part- stir in the vodka! Then cover your pitcher and keep it in the fridge until you are ready to serve. Remember, the longer your delicious drink sits, the more the flavors will come together. This can be made up to a day before serving.
Classic Cocktail Recipe: Step 3
- Before serving, stir in lemon water or lemon Italian soda. Pour your drink over ice and top off with sprigs of rosemary and lemon slices.
