Blueberry Bliss and GIVEAWAY WINNER!

Blueberry Bliss and GIVEAWAY WINNER!

by Pam on April 14, 2013

We recently went out to dinner with some friends at one of our favorite restaurants. My friend had a drink with dinner that was absolutely wonderful called the Blueberry Bliss. This cocktail consists of sparkling wine, blueberry vodka, and coconut rum topped off with fresh blueberries. It’s light, refreshing, and so delicious. We went to dinner at a friend’s house this weekend and we made these drinks. I also tried it with sparkling water instead of sparkling wine and loved it.  Cheers!

See the bottom of the page for the giveaway winner.

Pour the vodka and coconut rum into a champagne glass. Top it off with sparkling wine or sparkling water (if you use sparkling water make sure to add a bit of fresh lemon juice for an added kick of flavor). Stir the cocktail then add fresh blueberries on top. Serve immediately. Enjoy.

Use the leftover rhubarb on your porridge or cereal — or enjoy with custard or ice cream!

Method

  1. Put the rhubarb in a pan with the sugar and 400ml water. Bring to the boil, stirring occasionally, then simmer gently for 10-15 mins, without stirring, until the fruit is soft.
  2. Tip the fruit and juice into a large sieve over a large measuring jug or bowl. Leave it for about 15-20 mins for the juice to run through — don’t push it through, otherwise the juice will be cloudy.
  3. You should have 500-600ml juice. Make it up with water if necessary. Pour the juice into a clean pan. Add the gelatine leaves. Leave for 5 mins for them to soften, then put the pan on a low heat and stir until 4the gelatine dissolves.
  4. Take off the heat. Leave until just beginning to thicken, then whisk in the wine. Pour into a jug then glasses. Leave to set in a cool place. It will be a soft set.
