Tasting Notes

This gin cocktail brings bright, tangy notes from fresh blueberries and a gentle sweetness from simple syrup. The juniper and botanical flavors of the gin blend smoothly with the fruit.

A light effervescence from club soda adds refreshing bubbles and helps balance the drink’s sweetness. The texture is silky yet bubbly.

Fresh citrus from lemon juice cuts through the sweetness and adds a zesty lift. The drink’s purple-blue color comes naturally from the muddled blueberries.

The aroma features:

• Fresh blueberries
• Citrus zest
• Floral gin botanicals
• Light juniper

Flavor intensity: Medium

Sweetness level: Medium-low

Alcohol strength: Medium

Each sip starts with fruity blueberry notes, moves to crisp citrus, and ends with classic gin botanicals. The finish is clean and refreshing with a subtle berry sweetness that lingers.

The cocktail tastes best when served very cold. Ice dilution helps marry the flavors while maintaining the drink’s sparkle.
