Instructions

  • In a sturdy wineglass or rocks glass, muddle the 1/4 cup fresh blueberries with 1 of the thyme sprigs.

    ☞ TESTER TIP: If you don’t have a muddler, a wooden spoon will work just fine in its place.

  • Fill the glass three-quarters full with ice and stir.
  • Pour the 1 ounce fresh lemon juice, 1 ounce simple syrup, and 3 ounces chilled Prosecco over the ice and top with the 1 ounce chilled elderflower tonic water.
  • Gently stir to combine and garnish with the remaining thyme sprig and the skewered blueberries, if using.
