Chef's tip
Use the same amount; honey is a little thicker and slightly sweeter.
1 tsp lemon zest (from about 1 lemon)

For the spritz

¼ cup fresh lemon juice (from about 2 lemons)
3 cups sparkling water, chilled
2 cups ice cubes

For serving

4 lemon slices, for garnish (optional)
4 small fresh mint sprigs, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the blueberries, water, maple syrup, and lemon zest in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries burst and the liquid turns deep purple, about 6–8 minutes.
2
Remove the pan from the heat and press the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a pitcher or large measuring cup, pressing the solids firmly with the back of a spoon to extract as much syrup as possible. Discard the solids.
