What makes this so great

Fresh and fruity - I love making fruity mocktail recipes because they're so easy and taste great during all seasons. The fresh blueberry syrup in this recipe gives it a vibrant blue color and extra fresh and fruity flavor.

Everyone can enjoy it - This drink has been served to adults and kids alike and everyone loves it. Some of my other favorite mocktails are this blue lagoon mocktail and my fresh raspberry mocktail.

Fast! - In the summer when it is hot, a 3-minute mocktail is what I need. Thanks goodness this one is so simple but also quick to make.

Ingredients for blueberry mocktail

Like with our other fruity mocktail recipes, this great drink is made with simple ingredients for the perfect refreshing taste. See the recipe card for the full quantity and list of ingredients.

Non-alcoholic gin - I like using Caleno brand non-alcoholic gin but you can use whatever you have on hand. I find that using virgin gin instead of another base gives this drink an authentic taste.

Blueberry simple syrup - The blueberry simple syrup is what adds the blueberry flavor to this recipe. It's made with fresh blueberries, sugar, and water for an easy recipe.

Fresh thyme - This recipe calls for thyme in the drink and I also like topping this drink with fresh thyme for some extra flavor. Fresh mint leaves are another great topping option.

Club soda - Club soda is the base for a classic blueberry cocktail so to keep the flavor the same, I use it in this recipe as well.

How to make a blueberry mocktail

There's only four easy steps to this recipe. You'll have to repeat the steps when making larger batches.

Step 1: Muddling the blueberries and thyme together really make the flavors pop!

Step 2: Next you will fill the mixer with ice then add gin, blueberry simple syrup & lemon juice (fresh is best) and shake until outside of shaker gets cold usually only takes about 1-minute.

Step 3: Strain into a glass filled with ice and add club soda and garnish with fresh lemon or lime wedges and thyme.

Pro Tip: Add sweet blueberries for a deeper blueberry flavor!
