Imagine you’re laying out by the pool, soaking up the sun and sipping an ice cold drink. Now picture that drink is a delicious, electric blue cocktail. Why not take a break from your favorite beer, wine or mixed drink and try a new blue treat?
A popular liqueur to make these bold-colored cocktails is Blue Curacao. It is flavored with the dried peel of a citrus fruit grown on the island of Curacao in the Caribbean. Its orange-like flavor makes it perfect to pair with rum or vodka and your favorite fruit juice. Add a parasol to your cocktail and sail away in cool blue style!
