Holiday Blueberry Shrub Cocktail
Blueberry Shrub Holiday Cocktail | Dine X Design
Tis the season for….blueberries?!
I know what you’re thinking - Usually this time of year we are neck deep in pumpkin, apples and a winter-spiced EVERYTHING. Not that I’m complaining….but it’s time to switch things up a bit. And when you think about it, the blueberry makes sense. It’s earthy and sweet, perfect to add unexpected punch to a number of savory dishes... not to mention they are available year-round, in the frozen and fresh produce sections...making your holiday shopping a little less stressful of a hunt.

This year I’m changing up my welcome cocktail when entertaining guests by infusing the blueberry’s tart and woody flavors with a hint of ginger and thyme. This berry wants to get funky and show off...it’s a holiday party animal like that!
So let’s celebrate the little blue dynamo by turning it into a Shrub!

Shrubs are crazy simple to execute and pack a lot of exciting flavor into a variety of cocktails and non-alcoholic spritzes. I don't want to get ahead of myself, but this blueberry shrub is the most exciting elixir I've made yet. In fact, I’m glad there's a full batch still in my fridge because I’ve been enjoying it in sparkling water, ginger ale...and not to mention this blue bourbon cocktail. Woo-wee! This is going to get your people a-talking...so refreshing, so unexpected...it really screams the holidays in a totally new exciting way.
