Blueberry Smash

Blueberry SmashI’m always looking for fun cocktail recipes to serve at my various parties and lately, I’ve been really into gin drinks.

This summery cocktail recipe was provided by one of my favorite local spots to enjoy libations and tapas, Spuntino Wine Bar and Italian Tapas. I love the idea of incorporating Jersey blueberries in this drink.

Ingredients:

  • 1 fl oz. Prairie Gin
  • 3/4 fl oz. Grand Marnier
  • 5 fl oz. blueberry puree
  • 1 fl oz. pineapple juice
  • 1/2 oz. lime juice
  • 1/2 oz. simple syrup
  • 1 fl oz. prosecco
  • 6 blueberries

Method:

  1. Fill pint glass with ice.
  2. Add gin, Grand Marnier, blueberry puree, pineapple juice, lime juice and simple syrup.
  3. Empty contents of pint glass into cocktail shaker.
  4. Shake vigorously and strain into coupe glass.
  5. Float prosecco on top and garnish with a spear of blueberries.

Cheers,

Veronique
