Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

With summer here and lots of hot weather in the future, it’s time to turn to cocktails that are light and refreshing.

I wanted to try put a new twist on one of my favorites, Stoli Blue and soda. I’m sure vodka soda’s really do it for some folks, but I find them pretty boring, but blueberry flavored vodka gives it a little extra something. It provides flavor without being sweet, which is what I love. We have a ton of mint growing around here at the moment and I had a lot of blueberries, so I thought I might try to make a blueberry flavored, mojito inspired type of thing.

Blueberry Mint Muddler

1 shot Stolichnaya Stol Blueberi Vodka
5 fresh or frozen blueberries
5 fresh mint leaves
Sparkling water/Club Soda
Ice

I muddled the fresh blueberries, mint and vodka in the glass. Stirred. Added ice and topped with sparkling water.

I think next time I would try to make it more ‘mojito’ like than vodka soda like, by adding a dash of simple syrup and probably some lime juice as well.
