Blueberry Lemonade Ingredients: • Blueberry Syrup: • 4 cups fresh blueberries • 1/2 cup sugar • 1 lemon, juiced
• Lemonade: • 6 cups sugar • 24 lemons, juiced
Directions: 1. For the blueberry syrup: Put the blueberries, sugar and lemon juice in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, then reduce the heat and simmer until thick, 20 to 25 minutes. 2. Strain the blueberries through a fine-mesh strainer, pressing to get all the liquid out, then place the liquid in the fridge and chill until cold. 3. For the lemonade: Mix the sugar with 6 cups of tap water and stir until the sugar is dissolved to make a simple syrup. 4. Pour the lemon juice into a large vat. Pour in three-quarters of the simple syrup and 8 cups of water. Add the blueberry syrup, stir it around and then give it a taste. Add more simple syrup if it needs sweetness, or more water if it needs dilution. Top up with lots of ice before serving.
