Today we are featuring the Blueberry Mint Fizz - I just love the colors, and the navy and green motif is perfect for Preppy & Co.'s first round of Thirsty Thursday! This recipe comes from Waiting On Martha, a blogger that I am currently obsessed with!

Here is Waiting on Martha's recipe:
"Smirnoff Blueberry Vodka
St. Germaine Liquor (or Agave syrup) if you’re not going to use our the fruit filled ice cubes
Club Soda
Mint Leaves
Blueberries
White grape juice (for the ice cubes)
Place 5-8 mint leaves in the bottom of your shaker and muddle. Add
regular ice (not the fancy fruit ice), 1 1/2 oz Smirnoff Blueberry Vodka
2 1/2 oz Club Soda shake, shake, shake. Pour over fancy fruit ice and
enjoy. If you are not using the fancy fruit ice (how to below) then you
may want to add agave or St. Germain liquor to add a touch of
sweetness. Also for a more intense blueberry flavor add a 5 or so fresh
blueberries to the bottom of your shaker along with the mint and
muddle.
For the fancy fruit ice cubes...
lace blueberry and mint leaves into ice cube molds. 2-3 blueberries and
mint leaves per cube. Mix equal parts white grape juice to water and
pour into molds filling them all the way to the top. Freeze overnight. **You
can do this with any fruit or herb, just be careful as some fruits tend
to bleed turning your whole cube colored if they’re too ripe. This
happened to me with raspberries**"
A cocktail wouldn't be a cocktail without the perfect glass, right? Preppy & Co. has a huge selection of monogrammed glassware, and our Mojito Cocktail Glass is just the right size for so many cocktails! This set of 4 glasses makes a great gift at just $50. Pair it with a bottle of Smirnoff Blueberry Vodka and a recipe to add a personal touch!
If you really want to do it right, add a striped straw from For Your Party. We adore this website for all of our printed napkins and party supplies!!
