Pitcher

In a pitcher, muddle the blueberries, lemons, and simple syrup until the lemons release their oils and about half of the blueberries are smashed. (If you don’t have a large muddler, a big wooden spoon works great!). Stir in the vodka. Cover and place in the fridge until you are ready to serve (the longer it sits, the more the flavors will infuse).

Right before serving, stir in the sparkling lemon water (or lemon Italian soda). Pour over ice and garnish with lemons and sprigs of rosemary. Tip: I like to twist the rosemary a bit to release their oils. This will make 8 small drinks or 4 big ones!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Muddle Berries Gently 🫐
Lightly press blueberries with the back of a spoon rather than crushing them to release juice and flavor while keeping them visually intact for presentation.
Chill Your Pitcher First 🧊
Pre-chill your pitcher in the freezer for 15 minutes before assembling the spritz to keep the drink cold longer without over-diluting from excessive ice.
Infuse Rosemary Overnight 🌿
Make your simple syrup with fresh rosemary sprigs 12-24 hours in advance so the subtle herbal notes fully integrate for a more sophisticated flavor profile.
Fresh Lemon Juice Only 🍋
Always use freshly squeezed lemon juice rather than bottled—it provides superior brightness and tartness that makes this cocktail truly shine and stand out.
Add Carbonation Last ✨
Pour the sparkling lemonade or lemon water immediately before serving to maintain maximum fizz and prevent the drink from becoming flat during pitcher storage.
