Marina's Blueberry Vice Cocktail recipe
Rating
Marina's Blueberry Vice is a simple, modern vodka highball that leans into bold fruit flavour with minimal fuss. With just two ingredients, it sits firmly in the easy-drinking mixed-drink camp: spirit plus juice, built for speed, consistency, and a clean, approachable profile rather than a long, storied backstory.
You’ll find the vodka brings a crisp, neutral backbone that lets the blueberry juice take centre stage. The blueberry juice delivers the drink’s deep berry sweetness and rounded, jammy fruit character, while the vodka keeps it from feeling overly heavy, adding a subtle bite that tightens the finish. Expect a straightforward balance: fruit-forward up front, clean and spirited as it trails off.
Served in a highball glass, this is a natural pick when you want something tall, bright, and uncomplicated. It suits casual get-togethers, sunny afternoons, or any moment you’d normally reach for a vodka-and-juice combo, especially if you prefer your drinks on the sweeter, berry-led side.

FAQ's

What are some garnishing tips for Marina's Blueberry Vice?

Can I substitute vodka in Marina's Blueberry Vice with another spirit?
Yes, for a twist on Marina's Blueberry Vice, you can substitute vodka with white rum or gin for a different flavor profile. White rum will add a sweeter, slightly fruity note, while gin can introduce herbal or citrus notes, depending on the gin.
How does the alcohol content of Marina's Blueberry Vice compare to other cocktails?
