Blueberry Tuscan Lemonade with Vodka is so refreshing. Blueberry simple syrup is mixed with lemon vodka and Sprite.
This summer vodka drink is fruity and delicious! Picture yourself sitting in the shade under a big tree sipping on this cocktail out of a mason jar.
When I think of summer drinks, I think of sweet and fruity drinks like this Coconut Amaretto Cocktail. Coconut is for the beaches, but lemon is for the backyard.
This recipe makes 4 drinks, so invite some friends over for a good time!
Tuscan Lemonade Ingredients
To make this blueberry lemonade cocktail, you will need the following ingredients (see the recipe card below for exact amounts):

- Lemon vodka

How to Make a Blueberry Lemonade Cocktail
- Make the Blueberry Simple Syrup: Place the blueberries, sugar and water in a small sauce pan. Heat over medium heat. Smash some berries with a fork or a muddler while stirring. Sauce will thicken slightly. Allow to cool.
- Make the Lemon Zest: Zest lemon and add to 1/8 C sugar. Using a fork, press zest into sugar combining it together. Using a lemon slice, trace the rim of your glass to moisten. Place rim into lemon sugar to coat rim. [Use mason jars for an extra summery feel!]
- Make the Lemonade: Fill glass with ice. Pour 2 ounces lemon vodka and 1 cup Sprite into each glass. Add 1/4 teaspoon lemon juice into each glass. Pour 2 tablespoons of the blueberry simple syrup on top and garnish with a lemon slice and blueberries. Alternatively, you can add all ingredients to a pitcher and divide evenly between the mason jars.
Can I Make this Drink Non-Alcoholic?
If you don’t drink alcohol, you can substitute lemonade for the vodka.
