1. Simmer: In a small saucepan, combine blueberries, sweetener, lemon juice, and water. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Cook 3–4 minutes until berries soften and release their juices.

2. Thicken: Stir in cornstarch slurry. Cook, stirring constantly, 1–2 minutes more until thick, glossy, and rich purple. For a smoother sauce, mash some berries or blend briefly. Let cool slightly — it thickens as it cools.
