Recipe Tips

• Blueberries – If you do not have fresh blueberries, use frozen ones that have been thawed in the fridge. You do not want them to be frozen when you blend them.
• Lemon Juice – I recommend using freshly squeezed lemon juice. If you do not have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice instead. 
• Storing Blueberry Lemonade – You can store this lemonade in the fridge for up to one week.
• Puree Blueberries – To puree the blueberries you can add the raspberries to either a food processor or a blender.
• Combining the Ingredients – Once you have blended the blueberries and water and then mixed with the other ingredients. Make sure to combine thoroughly.
• Taste as you go – We recommend tasting the lemonade as you go. You can always add in more sugar, lemon juice or water depending on your preference.
• Blender – We recommend using a Vitamix blender to combine the ingredients. It always makes the perfect consistency and texture. But you can use whatever blender you have.
• Serving – Since this is a special drink, we like to serve in fun mason jars with lemon slices. You can add in some frozen blueberries for an eye pleasing drink.

How to Serve Lemonade

• Punch Bowl – It is the perfect summer beverage for birthday parties, baby showers and more. Just pour the lemonade into a punch bowl. I often add in fresh lemons and blueberries.
• Glass pitcher – Pour the lemonade into a serving pitcher. It’s perfect for entertaining or just to use at home. We love lemonade and this recipe is a favorite around here.
