A NEFT Vodka Barrel and a glass of Blueberry Lemon Drop on a bar counter.

Blueberry Lemon Drop

A closeup of a Sour, Summer Blueberry Lemon Drop drink against a dark background.

Blueberry and lemon: the definition of a perfect pairing. This cocktail takes the tart, citrusy classic Lemon Drop and adds fresh blueberries for a slightly sweeter, fruitier drink. Shaking the blueberries with vodka, lemon juice, and simple syrup also gives the Blueberry Lemon Drop a stunning color. Don’t forget to rim the martini glass with sugar to serve this cocktail up with an extra dash of sweetness.
