Tart pomegranate juice is served over frozen blueberry-studded lemonade in this fun and fruit Fourth of July drink!
Ingredients
½ cup fresh blueberries
1 ½ cups water, divided
⅓ cup cane sugar
juice of one large lemon
few drops of blue food coloring (optional)
1 cup pomegranate (or other red) juice
Instructions
Combine 3 tablespoons water and all of cane sugar in a small saucepan over medium-high heat.
Stir until the mixture boils and all the sugar is dissolved. Allow the syrup to cool to room temperature.
Cover the syrup and place in the fridge to chill for about 10-20 minutes
Meanwhile, evenly divide the blueberries between two glasses.
Remove the syrup from the fridge, and stir in the remaining water and all of the lemon juice. Taste, and add more lemon if needed.
If using blue food coloring, add a few drops to the lemonade.
Pour half of the lemonade into each glass, over the blueberries. Freeze for 3-5 hours or until solid.
Pour whatever juice (pomegranate, cranberry, raspberry lemonade) you are using over the ice and serve.
Notes
•You can adjust the time the ice spends in the freezer based on how hard you want the ice •Feel free to try this with cranberry juice or raspberry lemonade instead of pomegranate!
