How to Make Blueberry Gin And Cocktail

  1. Combine 1 cup blueberries and 1 cup gin in a clean mason jar. Seal tightly and let it sit in a cool, dark place for at least 2-3 days, or up to a week for maximum blueberry flavor.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water. Add 1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise and scraped. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Simmer for about 30 minutes. Remove from heat, let cool completely, and refrigerate.
  3. Fill a highball glass with ice. Add the juice of 1/2 lemon.
  4. Add 2 ounces of your blueberry-infused gin to the glass.
  5. Add vanilla syrup to taste (start with 1 ounce and adjust).
  6. Top with 4 ounces of tonic water.
  7. Stir gently.
  8. Garnish with 2-3 fresh blueberries and a lemon twist (optional).
  9. Enjoy responsibly!
