Instructions

The Coastal Pine Refresher is a non-alcoholic mocktail that captures the essence of Maine's lush forests and rugged coastline. This refreshing drink combines the subtle piney notes with the tartness of wild blueberries, a staple in Maine's local produce. Its vibrant layers are reminiscent of a sunset over the Atlantic, and it's finished with a fizz that evokes the refreshing Atlantic breeze. Ingredients: - 1/2 cup fresh wild blueberries (Maine blueberries if available) - 1 tablespoon maple syrup (preferably from Maine) - 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated ginger - A small sprig of fresh rosemary - 2 tablespoons pine needle syrup (see instructions below) - Juice of half a lemon - Soda water to top up - Crushed ice - Rosemary sprig and blueberries for garnish Pine Needle Syrup: - 1 cup sugar - 1 cup water - 1 cup fresh pine needles (white pine if available, cleaned and chopped) Instructions for Pine Needle Syrup: 1. Combine sugar and water in a saucepan over medium heat. 2. Stir until the sugar has dissolved. 3. Add the chopped pine needles. 4. Bring to a simmer and then remove from heat. 5. Allow the mixture to steep for about 30 minutes. 6. Strain the syrup to remove pine needles and let it cool. Mocktail Preparation: 1. In a shaker, muddle the blueberries, maple syrup, ginger, and the small sprig of rosemary to release the flavors. 2. Add pine needle syrup, lemon juice, and a handful of crushed ice. 3. Shake well until all the ingredients are well combined and chilled. 4. Strain the mixture into a highball glass filled with crushed ice. 5. Top up with soda water. 6. Gently stir to create a layered effect. 7. Garnish with a sprig of rosemary and a few whole blueberries on top. Serve immediately and enjoy the taste of a Maine-inspired sunset in a glass.
