I had this drink at a Mexican restaurant, and I truly feel it goes SO well with Mexican foods. Check out these gluten free chicken fajitas, fried chicken tacos, or Mexican street corn enchiladas! I use my Whole30 taco seasoning in most of them too.
Blueberry Mocktail ingredients
There's only a small amount of ingredients which makes this all the easier to make!
- Blueberries-Use fresh blueberries here and organic if possible. If you have a bunch of extra blueberries, make my Gluten Free Blueberry Cobbler!
- Lemon Juice-As in, freshly squeezed lemon juice! You definitely don't want to use bottled lemon juice here when the fresh flavor is paramount to the final product.
- Agave Syrup-I have made this with both light and dark agave and both work just fine!

Blueberry Mocktail FAQ's
Yes! There is no alcohol in a mocktail.
You can use frozen blueberries, but you'll need to let them thaw first, then make the recipe like normal. I would even put the thawed liquid from the blueberries in the drink, as it will make the color even more beautiful.

Blueberry Mocktail-The Gracias Madre
Ingredients
- 10 blueberries
- ¼ teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 3 tablespoon agave
- ⅛ teaspoon ground dried rosemary optional
- 1.5-2 cups sparkling mineral water topo chico is best
- rosemary or thyme twigs optional, for a garnish
Instructions
- Place blueberries in a cup and muddle. If you don't have a muddler, use the back of a wooden spoon or the like.
- Add the lemon juice, agave, and rosemary. Add ice if using.
- Pour mineral water in the glass, and mix gently until agave is dissolved.
- Garnish with a lemon slice or sprig of rosemary!
Notes
- If you'd like your drink a little bit fizzy, only mix in half of the sparkling water with the berries, agave, and lemon juice. Once that's thoroughly mixed, then pour in the rest of the sparkling water and do not mix further.

Nice!!!!! I definitely have to try this myself. Every now and then, my friends host a Taco Tuesdays. We'll experiment with this first and hopefully incorporate it into Taco Tuesdays. Sangrias are nice, but it wouldn't be so bad to mix it up =D
Great post!!!
