The Blue Bullet

June 28, 2020

 

 

There were fresh Blueberries at the grocery store and it was a cold night (yes, even at the end of June!) so we were thinking a whiskey drink.  Tena found this recipe.  I wondered, Blueberries, Basil, and whiskey?  It was really, really good!

 Handful of Blueberries

8-10 Basil Leaves

Ice

4 oz Whiskey, in this case Tin Cup

2 oz Maple Syrup (from Maine of course!)

Juice from 1 Lemon


Place heavy glass Highball glasses in the freezer for 2-3 hours.

Muddle Blueberries and basil in a shaker, then fill it with ice.  Add Whiskey, Maple syrup and lemon juice.  Shake until the outside of the shaker is cold.  Pour into the glasses.  Garnish with fresh blueberries.

It didn’t look like much but man, it was good!!
