What to Drink:

Get a taste of the blueberries Cadie and Daniela pick from their canoe with blueberry punch! It’s a fizzy and refreshing treat. Prefer a cocktail to a mocktail? This drink is a great mixer for vodka or champagne.

Blueberry punch

  • 1 lb. blueberries
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup basil
  • Fizzy lemonade

1. Add the blueberries, basil, water and sugar to a medium saucepan and stir. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes.
