Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons fresh blueberries divided
  • 1 ounce fresh lime juice
  • ½ ounce pure maple syrup optional
  • 2 ounces vodka
  • 6 ounces ginger beer
  • Fresh mint leaves

Equipment

  • Copper mug or cocktail glass
  • Muddler or spoon
  • Jigger or measuring spoon
  • Bar spoon
  • Ice

Method
 

  1. Muddle one tablespoon of the blueberries with a few fresh mint leaves, the lime juice, and maple syrup directly in the bottom of your glass or copper mug. Press just enough to release the berry juices and mint oils without shredding the herbs too finely.
  2. Fill the glass generously with ice so the cocktail stays cold and crisp from the first sip to the last.
  3. Pour in the vodka, then slowly top with ginger beer. Stir gently so the flavors combine while preserving the carbonation.
  4. Garnish with the remaining blueberries and extra fresh mint leaves for a polished presentation.
  5. Serve immediately while the drink is icy cold and sparkling.

Notes

The blueberries add both beauty and flavor, while the ginger beer keeps every sip bright and lively.
Whether served in a traditional copper mug or your favorite cocktail glass, it’s a simple yet impressive drink that always feels refreshing and festive.
