How to Make Blueberry Mint Lemonade
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, 1/2 cup of water, and 1/4 cup of fresh mint leaves.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. This creates a delicious mint syrup.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mint syrup cool completely.
- Strain the cooled mint syrup through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a tall pitcher, pressing on the mint leaves to extract as much flavor as possible.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice and 2 cups of cold water into the pitcher.
- Fill four tall glasses with ice cubes. Divide 1 cup of fresh blueberries evenly among the glasses (about 1/4 cup per glass).
- Pour the blueberry mint lemonade over the ice and blueberries.
- Top each glass with seltzer water, if desired, for extra fizz.
