Ingredients

2 cups fresh blueberries
1 wide strip lemon zest
2 cups applejack brandy (such as Laird’s Jersey Lightning)
Simple syrup (for serving)

Instructions

Combine blueberries, lemon zest, and brandy in jar and seal tightly. Let sit in a cool dark place, shaking jar daily, until mixture is a deep purple color, about 1 month.

To make a spritzer, place 1 oz. cordial in a flute and top off with sparkling wine.
