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!

Wow this tastes amazing. I made a couple subs – no sugar, and soy milk and frozen blueberries. Came out a treat!
I’m confused a little. It says 2/3 cup water and 2 cups milk. But then it says to mix the berries, water and sugar in the pan. Do you add the milk? Or is the milk just for drinking?
i like it very good
wow this is just so wonderful. i have a serious blueberry milk drinking problem and this really clenched my thirst
The milk tastes great. Had a bit of suspicion but was very surprised.
