blueberry milk
For all of you milk fans out there, I have a fun new recipe for you….blueberry milk!
That’s right. Not strawberry milk. Not chocolate milk. And it’s definitely not made from some processed syrup from the store. This is homemade, natural, healthy, feel-good-serving-to-your-kids blueberry milk! Whoo!
Although of course, it turned out a little more lavender than blue. Hmmm…. :)
All you need to do is whip up the blueberry syrup, and then you can refrigerate it or serve it right away with your favorite kind of milk. Super simple, and totally fresh and delicious. Cheers!
Ingredients
- 1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2/3 cup water
- 2 cups milk
Method
In a small saucepan, heat blueberries, sugar and water over medium high heat until boiling. Reduce heat to medium-low, and let simmer for 10-15 minutes to reduce until it is thickens slightly. Remove from heat and strain through a fine-mesh strainer if desired. Refrigerate.
Whisk together 1/4 cup blueberry syrup with 1 cup cold milk to serve.

My son likes mixing nestle quick into his milk and watching it dissolve into his milk. Just wondering how to get your recipe into a powder form – which would be healthier; he would love the blue color; and we could also transport easier on road-trips.
I made some this today. I put some in my milk (which was delicious) and the rest on some cinnamon french toast,which was even more delicious. Great recipe!
This is beautiful! And I bet tastes amazing! So smooth and perfect and creative!
