Ingredients

  • 1 cup (240ml) water
  • 1 cup (200g) caster sugar
  • 2 cups (300g) fresh blueberries
  • 2/3 cup (160ml) freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 4 cups (960ml) still or sparkling water

Instructions

  • Place 1 cup water, sugar and blueberries in a medium sized saucepan, over a low heat.
  • Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally and then cook for 4-5 minutes until the blueberries burst and cook down into a mush. Mixture will be intensely purple and all the sugar should have dissolved!
  • Place a sieve over a large jug/pitcher and strain the blueberry mixture to get rid of any pips. Discard the blueberry pulp.
  • Add in the fresh lemon juice and water and stir until combined.
  • Place in the fridge until chilled, around 2 hours.
  • Serve with ice cubes, a few blueberries and a wedge of lemon.
  • Blueberry Lemonade will keep covered, in the fridge, for 3 days.
