Who doesn't love a refreshing cocktail!? This blueberry basil lemon vodka martini is so delicious! The cocktail recipe uses fresh blueberries, basil, lemon, & vodka - that's it! Such a refreshing vodka drink using only a few ingredients and no additional sugar (other than what's in the blueberries & vodka). I love a good vodka cocktail & don't like my drinks too sugary, so this martini recipe is super refreshing. The recipe inspiration came from a family friend, but we had to put a Rich & Kitch twist on it!
