- 1 inch piece, peeled and grated Fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 2 cups Club soda
- 1 cup Ice cubes

Directions
Step 1
In a small saucepan, combine the grated ginger, honey, and 1/4 cup of water. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any solids.

In a cocktail shaker or mason jar, add the fresh blueberries, lime juice, and mint leaves. Muddle the ingredients together using a muddler or the back of a wooden spoon until the blueberries are well crushed and the mint is fragrant.
Step 3
Add the ginger syrup (prepared in Step 1) to the muddled blueberry mixture and shake well, or stir to combine.
Step 4
Fill two serving glasses halfway with ice cubes. Strain the blueberry and ginger mixture evenly into each glass.
Step 5
Top each glass with chilled club soda and gently stir to combine.
Step 6
Garnish with extra mint leaves and a few whole blueberries if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy the zesty, fruity flavors of Ginger Blues!
