Since my favorite way to consume blueberries are via any baked good. ie. Blueberry Cobbler, Buckle, Muffins, or this Blueberry Lemon Coffee Cake, which I still have one in my freezer, we elected to make Blueberry Mojitos. Another weakness of mine, mojitos. Yes, (raising and waving my hand) I am aware of the sugar in our home made simple syrup as well as the sugar in liquor. Thank you very much.
For some reason we have yellow limes and purple blueberry puree??? IDK |
To that we used:
2C Fresh Blueberries, blended, strained, then added to pitcher with the rest of the mojito ingredients
They were very refreshing, delicious and added just a bit of tart to the sweet.
This coming weekend we will be entertained by Jessica and her crew as they are coming to STL. Woohoo! Yes, I did mean, "we will be entertained" because she always brings the party with her. Hopefully we can double up for next weeks MI: Strawberries (I couldn't let the summer go by without including the quintessential berry)
Go Fourth and Be Inspired!!
I'm making this mojito recipe this weekend; you've convinced me!
ReplyDeleteAlso, strawberries are my favorite fruit, but I never seem to cook/bake with them. Maybe because we eat them too quickly around here??? I'm excited to try my hand at something new!
I know what I'm making next week! It was in the Aug/Sept 2013 Cook's Country. See you soon!
