State Fair Blueberry Lemonade

August 25, 2020 By Shanna Leave a Comment

And we’re back with another refreshing fresh-squeezed lemonade recipe! We’ve had so much fun trying out new lemonade recipes all month. It’s been fun adding fruits to them that I never thought of before. Today, we’re making fresh-squeezed blueberry lemonade! We always have blueberries in the house so I thought, why not? Let’s give it a shot and see what happens.

Blueberry LemonadeTo make a batch of blueberry lemonade you will need the following –

4 1/2 C Water
1 C Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice (about 4-6 large lemons)
2/3 C Sugar (can use more or less depending on desired sweetness)
1 1/2 C Blueberry Puree

To make the blueberry puree you will need the following –

1/2 C Water
4 1/2 C Blueberries

The blueberry puree takes the longest to make so you’ll want to make that first.

Check the blueberries over for any stems and give them a quick rinse.

Place the blueberries and 1/2 C water in a pot and bring them to a boil.

Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to simmer, cover and cook for about 3 minutes. Stir it about every minute to make sure the blueberries do not burn.

Remove from burner and let cool for about 10 minutes.

While the blueberries are cooling it’s time to juice those lemons!

Squeeze the lemons into a large measuring cup or bowl.  I like to strain the lemon juice before we place it in the pitcher to remove any seeds and pulp.


Place the lemon juice, water, and sugar in the pitcher and stir.

Take the blueberry mixture and place in a blender and blend until smooth.

Strain the blueberry puree, this is optional but I did it just to make sure we had a smooth lemonade.

Add 1 1/2 c of the blueberry puree to the lemonade and stir.

Take a little taste. You may want to add more sugar or more blueberries or it may be perfect. This is where you can customize it to your liking.

Blueberry LemonadeServe chilled over ice. Be sure to stir the pitcher before serving as the blueberries and lemons have a tendency to separate.

Don’t forget to check back tomorrow to see what Minnesota State Fair inspired food we are making. Also, be sure to check out our other state fair recipes.
