Season's sippings: Summer 2009

Giadino Blu (Blue Garden)
$10, Rocca
500 Harrison Ave., Boston

In the mix:
1½ ounces Cold River blueberry vodka
½ ounce blueberry-mint puree
½ ounce soda water
Garnish with fresh mint and blueberry skewer.

"Blueberries are in season, and this vodka is from Maine," bar manager Steven Meserve said. "We try to use local flavors if we can."

Bottom line: This libation smells like blueberry pie, but the mint cuts the sweetness in the most delicious way.

Or try: The kiwi caipirinha ($10) is a tart take on the traditional Brazilian drink.
