Ingredients

Scale

For the Mocktail:

  • 4 oz fresh lemonade (or high-quality store-bought)
  • 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice
  • 1 oz blue curaçao syrup (non-alcoholic)
  • Lemon-lime soda or sparkling water to top (Olipop or Zevia recommended)
  • Crushed ice

For Garnish:

  • Fresh lemon slice
  • Maraschino cherry
  • Cocktail umbrella (optional but highly recommended!)

Cocktail Version (Optional):

  • 11.5 oz coconut rum or vodka

Instructions

  1. Create Your Tropical Base: Add lemonade, fresh lemon juice, and blue curaçao syrup to a cocktail shaker. If making the cocktail version, add your rum or vodka now too!
  2. Shake for That Perfect Froth: Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 30 seconds until the mixture is beautifully frothy and well-chilled. This creates that professional cocktail texture that makes all the difference!
  3. Build Your Paradise: Fill a hurricane glass (or tall glass) with crushed ice—crushed ice is key for that authentic tropical bar experience and better flavor distribution.
  4. Pour and Watch the Magic: Strain the shaken mixture over the crushed ice, watching as that gorgeous blue color transforms your glass into a tropical lagoon!
  5. Add the Sparkle: Top with lemon-lime soda or sparkling water, leaving room for garnish. The bubbles add that perfect effervescent finish that makes each sip dance on your tongue.
  6. Garnish Like a Pro: Float a lemon slice and drop in a bright cherry for that classic tropical look. Add a cocktail umbrella for maximum vacation vibes—trust us, it makes all the difference!
  7. Serve with Style: Present immediately while perfectly chilled and effervescent. Each sip delivers pure tropical bliss!

Notes

This recipe scales beautifully for parties—just multiply by the number of guests and mix in a pitcher! For extra customization, swap lemon juice for lime or orange juice and match your garnish accordingly. The blue curaçao syrup is what creates that stunning lagoon color—look for it in the cocktail mixers section. Crushed ice is essential for the authentic tropical bar experience and helps dilute the drink to the perfect strength. Store any leftover blue curaçao syrup in the fridge for up to 6 months. Perfect for themed parties, summer entertaining, or anytime you need a mental escape to the tropics!
