Ingredients:
- 2 oz Mezcalum
- 1.5 oz Pineapple juice
- 0.75 oz fresh Lemon juice
- 1 oz Blueberry syrup (recipe below!)
- 1 Egg white
- Garnish: Sugar rim (we used @bartesian’s Triple Berry Sugar Rimmer for extra flair!)
Blueberry Syrup:
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
Blueberry Syrup Instructions:
- Simmer Berries: In a medium saucepan, combine the blueberries and water. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat and cook for about 15 minutes, allowing the blueberries to break down and release their color and flavor.
- Strain & Sweeten: Strain the cooked blueberries and liquid through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing gently on the solids to extract all the juice. Discard the blueberry solids. Return the strained liquid to the warm saucepan. While still warm (but not boiling), stir in the sugar until it is completely dissolved.
- Cool & Store: Let the syrup cool completely to room temperature. Once cooled, transfer it to an airtight, food-safe container, such as a mason jar. Store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
- Alternatively, for a quick syrup: Substitute with equal parts blueberry jam and water. Stir well to combine until the jam is dissolved, then strain for a smooth syrup.
