Blueberry Limoncellos

These just sounded so good that I think we'll have to go out to the garage and see if we can find the blender. If not we'll have to go get a blender!

Blueberry Limoncellos
Ingredients

* 1 cup O Organics™ Frozen Wild Blueberries or fresh blueberries
* 3 tbsp. simple syrup* or sugar
* 3 tbsp. lemon juice
* 1 cup chilled limoncello liqueur or lemonade (regular or sparkling)
* 3/4 to 1 cup chilled Safeway Club Soda or sparkling water

*To make simple syrup combine equal parts water and sugar stirred over heat and brought to a boil, then cooled to room temperature.
Steps

1. In a blender, whirl blueberries, simple syrup, and lemon juice with just enough limoncello to make a smooth slush. (For a firmer slush, pour into a small bowl and freeze for up to 2 hours. To store up to 2 weeks, put slush in a resealable freezer bag, seal, and freeze. To use, let stand at room temperature a few minutes to soften slightly.)
2. Divide berry slush among 4 tall glasses (8 to 12oz. size), add equal portions limoncello; fill with club soda. Garnish with fresh berries on skewers; swizzle as you sip.

those look yummy - but then anything limoncello looks good to me - did anyone make that lemon meringue pie that was in the issue that came out in April 2008 that was made with limoncello?? I bought the bottle then to make the pie but never got to it but did get to the bottle ~ ~ that pie just looked so darn good

Oh, this just sounds way too good to pass up. And I'm trying to behave myself in preparation for the upcoming wedding. Hmmm.....

I haven't seen our 110 blender since we moved onto the boat. Hmmmm. The only blender I've got is 12 volt. It's either buy a blender or go sit in the car and make these things!
