Cocktail Corner: The Blueberry Smash

Is there one drink that reigns supreme as the best summer cocktail ever? Well, there are certainly some great contenders to consider. For example, the popular rum-infused Mojito and the subtle gin-based Tom Collins are both fine options. However, one cocktail that gets overlooked way too often is the refreshing and supremely satisfying Blueberry Smash.

The most appetizing feature of the Blueberry Smash is its symphony of fresh ingredients. All the different flavors come together like instruments in a well-tuned orchestra to convey a taste with unmatched crispness and zest.

The ingredients include: lemon and lime slices, blueberries (or blackberries) and a nice helping of tongue-tingling mint leaves. The liquor used is vodka, as opposed to a dark and heavy aged spirit. This also adds to the light and summery nature of the cocktail.

For a relaxed weekend picnic, an al fresco brunch or just a casual evening of drinking with friends, the Blueberry Smash is guaranteed to score rave reviews.
