In a small sauce pan add all of the ingredients and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
1 pint fresh blueberries, ½ cup granulated sugar, 1 large lemon zested, squeezed and juiced
Once it comes to a simmer, reduce heat to low and let simmer for 15-20 minutes or until it begins to thicken a little bit and the juices begin to release from the blueberries.
Once this happens, remove from the heat and allow to come to room temperature.
Once it has come to room temperature, place your sauce into a jar with a lid or cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 4 hours or overnight.
To serve:
