An easy and delicious Blueberry Gin Sour cocktail recipe that you will want to make all summer long! It is a classic cocktail with a fruity blueberry twist, that can also be made into a yummy mocktail.

Why make this cocktail recipe:
This blueberry cocktail is not only delicious but also really pretty. I use fresh edible flowers to garnish my drinks but fresh blueberries also work well. The beautiful blue color is thanks to the yummy Roses Blueberry Cordial that I used.
Alternatively, a blueberry syrup will also give the drink a beautiful color. A gin sour requires a cocktail shaker and is easy to make, and the end result is refreshing and fruity. Blueberry and gin are perfect flavor combinations - check out my Blueberry Gin & Tonic if you are also a fan!

Ingredients needed to make a blueberry gin sour:
- Lemon juice: Adds a zesty flavor and activates the egg white
- Gin: Any gin will do and the amount added can be adjusted to your preference. (Leave out the gin or replace it with non-alcoholic gin for a mocktail version.)
- Egg white: Gives the gin sour its iconic look and texture. Always make sure you're buying eggs locally. Chickens raised on local farms are often treated more humanely which ultimately results in healthier eggs. Yay for lower for less cholesterol. My personal favourite eggs are from Farmer Angus, they're right around the corner from me so I know just what I'm getting.
- Blueberry cordial (or blueberry syrup): Adds yummy blueberry flavor and sweetness
- Ice cubes: Makes the drink a refreshing cool temperature
- Garnish: I used a variety of fresh edible flowers, but fresh blueberries will also look pretty. Or it is even beautiful as a plain, ungarnished drink.
