Here’s a refreshing recipe for lemonade with wild blueberries and mint that everyone will love. You can make it for the kids with tap water instead of sparkling water if you like, but the grown-ups will probably prefer the sparkling version with vodka! If you like your lemonade not-too-sweet, just add a bit more sparkling water and there you go…
You could replace the white sugar with a natural sweetener like maple syrup, honey or agave nectar for extra yumminess. The lemonade concentrate with blueberries will keep for up to a week in the fridge so you can enjoy it every time you feel thirsty.
