Fresh blueberries and bright lemon juice come together in this refreshing agua fresca that tastes like summer in a glass. The deep purple color alone is enough to make anyone stop and ask what you're drinking, and the flavor delivers — fruity, tangy, and just sweet enough thanks to a touch of maple syrup. Everything gets blended smooth and then strained through a fine-mesh sieve, so the final drink is silky and clean without any pulpy texture. A pinch of salt might seem unexpected, but it quietly rounds out the sweetness and makes the blueberry flavor pop in the best way. You can easily adjust the maple syrup or lemon juice at the end to land exactly where you want it on the sweet-to-tart spectrum. Poured over ice with a few lemon slices, it looks like something you'd pay way too much for at a café — but it comes together in minutes with just a blender and a handful of real ingredients.

Combine the blueberries, cold water, lemon juice, maple syrup, and salt in a blender. Blend on high until completely smooth, about 30–45 seconds.
Set a fine-mesh strainer over a pitcher. Pour the blended mixture through the strainer, pressing gently on the solids with the back of a spoon until only dry pulp and skins remain. Discard the solids.
