Blueberry Cocktail How-To:

1. Rim your glass: Zest a little lime into sugar or salt on a plate (I prefer sugar for this drink!). Use a lime wedge to get the edge of your drink wet, then dip your glass into your sugar or salt mixture.

2. In a shaker, add all your ingredients (tequila, lime juice, agave syrup, cointreau, and blueberry jam) along with ice. Shake intensely for 20 seconds.

3. Double strain into your glass over fresh ice.

4. Garnish with a cocktail pick of blueberries & enjoy!

Batch Blueberry Margarita Recipe:

We love serving this blueberry margarita to a crowd! If you're planning on having people over and want something easy & delicious to serve, here's how you can batch the recipe yourself!

Batch Pitcher Ingredients (Serves 6-8):

• 1 ½ cups - reposado tequila
• ¾ cup - fresh lime juice
• ½ cup - agave syrup
• ¼ cup - Cointreau
• 3 tbsp - blueberry jam
• Ice
• Fresh blueberries (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Add all of your ingredients (minus the ice!) in a large pitcher and stir well to mix. Jam requires longer mixing, so if you prefer to use blueberry syrup you can do that too!

2. Chill your cocktail for at least 30 minutes. (1 hour + is preferred, but not necessary!)

3. Create your garnishes ahead of time! Simply add a few blueberries to some cocktail picks & set them in the fridge on a pretty plate until it's time to serve!

4. If you want to rim your glasses, you can create the sugar/lime mixture ahead of time & set it aside.

5. When your guests are ready to have a drink, fill their glasses with ice, stir the cocktail once more, and pour away!

6. Garnish with fresh blueberries & enjoy your company!
