The Blue Lagoon cocktail is a striking and refreshing drink that's perfect for any time of the year. Known for its electric blue color, this cocktail is as visually appealing as it is delicious. Originating in the 1960s in Paris, the Blue Lagoon has become a favorite for its simplicity and vibrant appearance. Here’s how to make this classic cocktail.
Equipment
- Hurricane Glass
- Basic Bar Tools
Ingredients
- 1 oz Vodka
- 1 oz Blue Curacao Liqueur
- top with Lemonade
- 1 Cherry
Instructions
Prepare the Glass:
- Start by chilling a hurricane glass in the freezer. This will keep your drink cold and refreshing for longer.
Combine the Ingredients:
- Pour 1 oz of vodka into the hurricane glass. Vodka provides a neutral base that allows the flavors and colors of the other ingredients to shine.
- Add 1 oz of blue curacao. This liqueur not only contributes to the cocktail’s vibrant blue color but also adds a sweet, citrusy flavor.
Top with Lemonade:
- Fill the rest of the glass with lemonade. The lemonade adds a refreshing, tangy sweetness that complements the vodka and blue curacao perfectly.
Add Ice:
- Fill the glass with ice cubes to keep the cocktail chilled. The ice also helps to blend the flavors as it melts slightly.
Garnish and Serve:
- Garnish with a cherry on top. The cherry adds a pop of color that contrasts beautifully with the electric blue of the drink.
- Serve immediately and enjoy.
