1 In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the blueberries, 1/4 cup of water, orange juice, and sugar. 2  Stir gently, and bring to a boil. 3  In a cup or small bowl, mix together the cornstarch and 1/4 cup cold water. 4  Gently stir the cornstarch mixture into the blueberries so as not to mash the berries.
