Ingredients:
- Juice of a fresh lime
- 3–4 fresh basil leaves
- ½ cup blueberries
- 6 oz. ginger beer (non-alcoholic)
- ½ cup ice
Variations:
Not into basil? Add mint leaves instead. You can also substitute blueberries for other fruits, such as oranges, pomegranate, or strawberries.
Directions:
Put the blueberries in a bowl. Admire them, because why not.
The blueberries swirling around your cup are packed with Vitamin C and so is the lime juice. The berries are also full of fiber, and the basil adds Vitamin K to your diet.
Cut the lime in half, remove the seeds, and squeeze over the blueberries. Mash the blueberries with a fork.
Mix and let sit for 10 minutes.
Fill a Moscow Mule mug (or any type of mug) with ice.
Combine the blueberry mixture with ginger beer and basil leaves. For a stronger basil taste, rub the leaves between your fingers before adding to the glass.
Mix well and enjoy.
Infused waters:
- Lemon berry fizz
- Cucumber, lime, & mint
- Apple cinnamon
