Tasting Notes
This refreshing cocktail greets the nose with sweet blueberry and light floral notes. The lavender aroma stays gentle and doesn’t overpower the other scents.
The first sip brings bright, bubbly carbonation that tingles the tongue.
Fresh blueberry flavor takes center stage, followed by subtle hints of lavender.
A touch of lemon adds necessary acidity that balances the sweetness of the blueberries.
The citrus notes bring a clean, crisp element to each sip.
The drink has a beautiful deep purple color with a light foam top from the carbonation. Small blueberry pieces and lavender buds float throughout, adding visual appeal.
Flavor Profile Highlights:
- Primary: Fresh blueberry
- Secondary: Gentle lavender
- Accent: Bright lemon
- Finish: Clean, effervescent
The finish is clean and refreshing without any artificial aftertaste. The carbonation leaves a pleasant fizzy sensation that invites another sip.
Perfect serving temperature is 38-42°F (3-6°C). The drink becomes less fizzy and loses some brightness when it warms up.
Substitute
You can make this drink without alcohol by leaving out the gin. Replace it with extra club soda or sparkling water for a refreshing mocktail.
No fresh blueberries? Use frozen ones instead. They work just as well and might even keep the drink cooler.
Don’t have lavender syrup? Mix equal parts sugar and water, then add 2-3 drops of food-grade lavender oil. Heat until sugar dissolves, then let it cool.
Alternative Mix-Ins:
- Replace blueberries with blackberries
- Swap lavender syrup for vanilla syrup
- Use tonic water instead of club soda
- Try elderflower liqueur in place of gin
For a different herb flavor, replace dried lavender with dried thyme or rosemary. These herbs add a nice floral note that pairs well with blueberries.
Need it sweeter? Add a splash of simple syrup or honey. Start with 1/4 ounce and adjust to taste.
