Ingredients

Scale

Mocktail Base

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons simple syrup (natural)
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup simple syrup (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
  • 2 cups sparkling water, chilled

Garnish

  • Assorted gummy bears
  • Fresh mint leaves (optional)
  • Lemon slices (optional, for rim garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Blueberry Puree: Blend fresh blueberries with 2 tablespoons of simple syrup (natural) until smooth. Strain if you prefer a silky texture or leave slightly chunky for added texture.
  2. Mix the Lemon Juice and Syrup: In a pitcher, combine fresh lemon juice with 1/4 cup simple syrup (natural), stirring well to balance sweetness and tartness.
  3. Add the Blueberry Puree and Natural Gelling Agent: Slowly whisk in the blueberry puree and 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent into the lemon mixture, blending evenly.
  4. Pour in Sparkling Water and Stir Gently: Add chilled sparkling water to the mixture and stir gently to maintain carbonation and combine flavors.
  5. Serve with Gummy Bears and Mint: Fill glasses with ice cubes, pour the mocktail into each, and top with a handful of gummy bears and a sprig of fresh mint for a playful presentation.

Notes

  • Use fresh blueberries and lemon juice for the best flavor.
  • Adjust simple syrup (natural) quantities to control sweetness.
  • Keep all ingredients chilled for a crisp and refreshing mocktail.
  • Add natural gelling agent cautiously to avoid an overly thick texture.
  • Add gummy bears just before serving to keep them chewy and colorful.
