Blueberry Cocktail

 

Serves 4

 

4 oz blueberry juice

1 oz honey

1 oz triple sec

1 oz vodka

1/4 cup mint

Splash of sparkling water

Sprigs of mint for garnish

 

Combine all ingredients except the sparkling water into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.

Shake until combined and chilled.

Use a strainer as you pour into glasses.

Add a splash of sparkling water and a sprig of mint to each glass.

Serve.

 

It’s a pink cocktail.  How cool is that?  Plus it tastes great.  My suggestion would be to use a pure blueberry juice without any added sweetener or leave out the honey.

Cucumber Saketini

 

Serves 2

 

2 oz gin

2 oz sake

1 whole Persian cucumber plus 6 thin slices

3 fresh basil leaves

1 tablespoon Honey

 

In a blender, add whole cucumber, basil, honey and sake.  Blend until the cumber and basil are completely smooth.

In a shaker with ice, mix together the gin and sake combination.  Pour into a martini glass and garnish with slices of cucumber.

Serve.

 

This drink is a strange combination of healthy and alcohol.  The cucumbers and basil are very refreshing but this drink is almost pure alcohol.  If you like martini’s, you’ll love this drink!

I would recommend using Hendricks Gin as it has hints of cucumber.
