What does a Blue Lagoon cocktail taste like?
This Blue Lagoon cocktail recipe has all the sweetness you’d expect from a tiki-style drink with a refreshing fizz and the deliciously zesty flavour. What’s in a Blue Lagoon cocktail? It’s built with multiple layers of citrus with triple sec, lemonade and zesty vodka. The Skyy vodka gives our cocktail a fresh zing base and the Blue Curaçao liqueur adds the bright and crazy hues along with its deep citrus and sweet flavour, enhanced with the bubbly lemonade. If you love tang of orange liqueurs or the combo of the sweet and zesty flavours, then our classy Cosmopolitan is another must try.
