Blueberry Julep Recipe

Blueberry Julep Recipe

  • 1/2 cup (125 g) superfine sugar
  • 4 sprigs mint
  • 2 cups (225 g) blueberries
  • 6 tablespoons bourbon
  1. Place the sugar and mint in a saucepan with 1 cup (250 ml) water and slowly bring to a boil, allowing the sugar to dissolve. Let simmer gently for 5 minutes, then remove from the heat and allow to infuse for 30 minutes.
  2. Place the blueberries and bourbon in a food processor or blender, and pour over the syrup, mint sprigs included. Blitz until completely smooth. Pour into six popsicle molds.
  3. Place the molds in the freezer. Let set for 2 hours, insert the popsicle sticks, and allow to freeze until completely solid (about 4 more hours).
