As bluebonnets bloom and spring breezes waft through open windows, bring the season’s magic to life in every refreshing, floral-infused sip of the Bluebonnet Breeze cocktail.

Ingredients:

  • 2 oz Express 1908 Gin (for a natural blue hue) or Blue Curaçao (for a brighter blue) 

  • 1 oz Fresh Lemon Juice

  • ¾ oz Elderflower Liqueur (St. Germain)

  • ½ oz Honey Syrup (equal parts honey and warm water)

  • 2 oz Sparkling Water or Topo Chico

  • Fresh Blueberries and a Lemon Wheel for garnish

Equipment:

  • Tall glass
  • Cocktail shaker

Instructions:

  1. Prepare and Shake the Cocktail: Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add gin* (or Blue Curaçao), lemon juice, elderflower liqueur, and honey syrup. Shake well until chilled.

  2. Strain and Pour: Strain into a tall glass filled with ice. 

  3. Add Fizz: Top with sparkling water for a crisp, effervescent finish. 

  4. Garnish: Garnish with fresh blueberries and a lemon wheel. 

    *Pro Tip: If using Empress 1908 Gin, add it to your glass last, pouring slowly over the back of a spoon to create a stunning color gradient from deep blue to a soft lavender hue.

Perfect for sipping on a dock at sunset or after a day on the lake.
