    Notes

    This recipe is easy to adjust.
    For a less sweet version, skip the ginger syrup. To make it boozy, add an extra half ounce of vodka. For a mocktail, leave out the vodka and use more ginger beer.
    You can prep the blueberry mixture ahead of time. Just add the ginger beer when ready to serve. This drink is best enjoyed fresh, as the carbonation from the ginger beer will fade over time.
    Try using different berries like raspberries or blackberries for variety. You can also swap vodka for gin or white rum to create new flavor combos.
