How to Make Blueberry Lavender Syrup

This syrup is the heart of the drink, and the smell while it simmers is heavenly. Your kitchen will smell like a fragrant tea garden in full bloom!

1. Combine Ingredients:
   • In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the blueberries, water, and sugar.
2. Mash and Add Flavor:
   • Use a potato masher to crush the berries. This helps release all the juices and natural color. Stir in the lemon juice and add the lavender sprigs.
3. Simmer:
   • Bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat. Once it starts bubbling, reduce the heat to medium and let it simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reduces and thickens slightly.
4. Strain and Cool:
   • Place a fine mesh strainer over a bowl or jar and pour the blueberry-lavender mixture through it. Gently press the solids with a spoon or spatula to extract every last drop of syrup.
5. Store:
   • Discard the solids and allow the syrup to cool completely. Transfer to a sealed jar and refrigerate. It keeps beautifully for up to a week.

✨ Pro Tip: This syrup is also amazing over pancakes, stirred into lemonade, or drizzled on vanilla bean ice cream for a dreamy dessert.

How to Assemble the Blueberry Lavender Fizz

1. Add Ice:
   • Fill a tall glass with ice cubes or crushed ice for extra chill.
2. Add Syrup and Citrus:
   • Pour in ¼ cup of your cooled blueberry lavender syrup. Squeeze in the juice from a fresh lime wedge—this adds a little tartness that balances the sweetness perfectly.
3. Top with Sparkles:
   • Slowly top with sparkling water or club soda. Pour gently to preserve the fizz and create a layered, fizzy effect.
4. Garnish:
   • Add a few whole blueberries, a slice of lime, or even a lavender sprig for a beautiful, aromatic finish.

Serve immediately, stir gently, and sip slowly to enjoy the flavors and fizz.

Storage & Prep Tips

• Make the syrup ahead – prep on the weekend and enjoy all week long
• Batch it – double or triple the syrup and store in mason jars for easy pouring
• Serve at a mocktail bar – let guests mix their own, adding garnishes and different bubbles
• Freeze into ice cubes – freeze the syrup in an ice tray to add flavor without dilution
• Use frozen blueberries instead of ice – keeps the drink cold and pretty without watering it down

Flavor Variations

• Swap lavender for rosemary for a slightly piney, savory twist
• Add a splash of elderflower cordial for extra floral depth (it pairs beautifully with blueberries—see it in my Lemon and Lavender Mocktail)
• Try honey or maple syrup instead of sugar for a more natural, earthy sweetness
• Stir in a bit of ginger juice for a spicy kick
• Use lemon-lime soda instead of sparkling water if you want more zing and sweetness
• Muddle fresh mint into the glass for a cooling contrast
