Taste it: Blueberry Infused Vodka Lemonade

I think we're all obsessed with things you can eat or drink out of jars right now. And I think this blueberry cocktail recipe not only looks beautiful but sounds delish (and easy!) too.

HOW TO MAKE 'EM

Ingredients: (makes 2 drinks)

vodka
1/2 cup fresh blueberries
1/2 cup frozen blueberries
1 teaspoon sugar
lemonade
lemon slices for garnish

Directions:

1- Put the fresh blueberries in the bottom of a mason jar.

2 - Get some decent vodka, pour it over the berries, filling the mason jar.

3 - Use a fork to mash up the berries in the bottom. Put on the lid and store in the fridge for at least 12 hours to allow the blueberries to infuse into the vodka.

4 - The vodka will turn cloudy right away, and will become purplish the longer it infuses.

5 - Once the 12 hours (or 24, or 36) are up, strain the vodka. Save those liquor-soaked berries for garnish! We don’t want perfectly good fruit going to waste.

6 - In a small bowl, thaw out the frozen berries and mix with sugar. In a fresh mason jar (or serving glass of your choice), pour in the sugared berries (divided between two jars) and add a bunch of ice.

7 - Pour in one part blueberry vodka and two parts lemonade. Give it a good stir. Add a few of the vodka-soaked blueberries and a slice of lemon for garnish.
