Ingredients
Scale
- 2 oz Bacardi White Rum
- 1 ½ oz blueberry simple syrup (recipe below)
- ½ oz freshly squeezed lemon juice
- ¼ oz Triple Sec
- 6 fresh blueberries
- 1 tbsp fresh pomegranate seeds
For the blueberry simple syrup:
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- ½ cup water
- ½ sugar
- Tiny pinch of pink Himalayan salt
Instructions
- Add lemon juice, fresh blueberries, and pomegranate seeds to a cocktail shaker and muddle.
- Add ice, Bacardi, blueberry simple syrup, and Triple Sec, and shake vigorously until well chilled.
- Strain using a fine mesh strainer into your glass. Add ice if preferred.
- To garnish, add a lemon wheel slice to pick and lay pomegranate seeds inside wheel.
For the blueberry simple syrup:
- In a small saucepan, bring water and sugar to a boil, stirring until the sugar is dissolved.
- Add blueberries and a tiny pinch of salt to the saucepan and stir to coat the blueberries.
- Turn the heat to medium-low. Allow the berries to simmer on low for about 10 minutes. Do not stir them during the simmering.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the berries and syrup to cool completely to room temperature.
- Once cool, strain using a fine mesh strainer into a container. Do not press on the berries while straining.
- Refrigerate. The syrup will last up to 2 weeks, as is, in the refrigerator, or if you add a tablespoon of vodka or rum, it will last longer.
