Blueberry Press

Over the years I've come to accept that I can’t do hard alcohol. I think I put forth a valiant effort but whether it’s shots, or fruity mixed drinks that taste like sweet tarts, I just can’t do it. The only hard alcohol I can handle is whatever is in Stacy’s family Recipe Bucket and, unless you are a Schmitz, you are not getting your hands on that recipe. Period. Anyway, no hard alcohol for me.

Enter the Blueberry Press Stacy made after blueberry picking this weekend. As with most yummy mixed drinks, my taste buds said, “Yes!” and then my stomach immediately screamed, “No Way! No Freek’n Way!”

So this post is for those of you who enjoy a yummy mixed drink. Perfect to be savored while you pick through then freeze, can, or bake with the blueberries you picked that day. Me, I think I’ll stick with a cool beer while I do the above.

Enjoy.
