For the Cocktail

• 2 ounces gin
• 3 ounces tonic water

1. To make the simple syrup, in a small saucepan bring the blueberries, water and sugar to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally and breaking up the blueberries with the back of a spoon, until vibrant in color. Strain out the blueberries using a mesh strainer and discard. Use right away or cool completely and refrigerate until ready to use. (makes enough for 4 cocktails)
