Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lemongrass

    Trim the ends of the lemongrass stalks and bruise them lightly with the back of a knife to release the flavor.

  2. 2

    Make the Syrup

    In a medium saucepan, combine the water, maple syrup, and bruised lemongrass. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce heat and let simmer for about 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Strain the Syrup

    Remove the saucepan from heat and strain the syrup into a bowl, discarding the lemongrass stalks.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the fresh blueberries, strained syrup, and lemon juice. If desired, add sugar to taste.

  5. 5

    Chill and Serve

    Refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld. Serve chilled as a delightful dessert or topping.
