Ingredients
🥤 3 oz Blue Gatorade
🧊 Ice cubes (enough to fill your glass)
🍋 1 slice of lemon
🫐 A handful of blueberries
🥤 Sprite, to top off
🍬 Sugar (optional, for rimming the glass)
Instructions
1- Prep the Glass:
- Optionally, rim the edge of your glass with sugar.
- To do this, slightly moisten the rim of the glass with water or lemon juice and dip it into a plate of sugar, turning to coat evenly.
2- Pour the Base:
- Begin by pouring 3 oz of Blue Gatorade into the glass to create the base layer of your drink.
3- Add Ice:
- Fill the glass with ice cubes.
- This helps in creating the desired layered effect.
4- Lemon Layer:
- Place a lemon slice carefully on top of the ice cubes.
- This will sit as a layer separating the Gatorade and the other ingredients.
5- Blueberry Sprinkles:
- Sprinkle a handful of blueberries over the lemon slice.
- These will add a pop of color and sweetness to the drink.
6- Finish with Fizz:
- Top off the drink with Sprite, pouring slowly to maintain the layered look.
7- Serve:
- Serve immediately while cold, and enjoy the refreshing flavors and stunning visual appeal!
