Notes
Use a cocktail shaker or jar:
Shaking the syrup and lemon juice with ice helps chill the base and mix the flavors evenly. A mason jar with a tight-fitting lid works just as well if you don’t have a cocktail shaker. Chill your ingredients:
For the best flavor and fizz, keep the blueberry syrup, lemon juice, and club soda cold before making the drink. Use fresh lemon juice:
Freshly squeezed lemon juice gives the mocktail a brighter, more balanced flavor than bottled juice. Add club soda last:
Wait to add the club soda until just before serving to preserve the bubbles and keep the drink crisp.
