BLUE LAGOON

You need to have a certain determination of spirit to start mixing drinks with Blue Curaçao, but I’ve always found something liberating about having scant concern for good taste. This drink looks like the ocean – you just want to swim right into it – and is something of a citrussy killer.

60ml (4 tablespoons) Blue Curaçao

30ml (2 tablespoons) vodka

7-Up

lime juice

Pour the Blue Curaçao and vodka into a glass, fill up with 7-Up and add a spritz of lime juice. Shut your eyes and knock it back.

Makes 1.
