Blueberry Lemonade

Hot summer days deserve a cool refreshing drink, something easy to throw together for yourself or a get together.

Blueberries have tons of health benefits, they’re in season right now and when you combine blueberries and lemon — ZING!

Blueberry Lemonade

• 5 C water
• 3 C blueberries
• 1 1/2 C sugar
• 1/2 C fresh squeezed lemon juice (this was 7 lemons for me)
• 1 C sparkling water or citrus lime soda

1. Blend 1 C water and 3 C blueberries until smooth, you can pour the liquid through a sieve to strain out the skins if you’d like.
2. Pour this mixture into a pitcher with the sugar, lemon juice, remaining 4 C of water and sparkling beverage.
3. Serve cold with lime wedges and ice cubes with blueberries in them.
