3. 3

   Strain the blueberries through a fine-mesh strainer, pressing to get all the liquid out, then place the liquid in the fridge and chill until cold (or place the pan in a bowl of ice to chill down fast).

   Pour the lemon juice into a large vat.

6. 6

7. 7

   Add the blueberry syrup, stir it around and then give it a taste.

   Add more simple syrup if it needs sweetness, or more water if it needs dilution.

9. 9

   Top up with lots of ice before serving.
