Description

The Blue Horizon is a vibrant cocktail known for its striking blue hue and refreshing, tropical flavor profile. Here’s a detailed recipe to craft this delightful drink at home


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ounce vodka
  • 3/4 ounce blue curaçao liqueur
  • 3/4 ounce spiced rum
  • 6 ounces orange juice
  • 1/4 ounce grenadine syrup
  • Ice cubes
  • Maraschino cherry and/or orange slice for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Fill a Collins glass with ice cubes.
  2. Pour in the vodka, followed by the blue curaçao and spiced rum.
  3. Add the orange juice, allowing the liquids to mix naturally.
  4. Slowly drizzle the grenadine syrup over the back of a spoon into the glass; it will sink to the bottom, creating a layered effect.
  5. Garnish with a maraschino cherry and/or an orange slice, if desired.
  6. Serve immediately to enjoy its vibrant appearance and refreshing taste.

Notes

  • For a lighter version, consider using diet orange juice and reducing the amount of grenadine to lower the sugar content.
  • Adjust the proportions of the spirits to suit your taste preferences, ensuring a balanced flavor profile.
