Tired of traditional cocktails? Try adding some fun to your cocktail parties by making gorgeous Instagram-worthy blue cocktails! When it comes to blue drinks, the taste is usually as delicious as the appearance. Many bartenders turn to Blue Curaçao - a blue liqueur made from the Laraha citrus fruit and dyed with food colouring. But there are other options as well! In this article, we’ll give you 20 delicious recipes for blue drinks that will be a great addition to your party drinks menu.

FUL®

While FUL® sparkling spirulina drinks are not alcoholic, they can serve as a base for a delicious blue cocktail (that will also be packed with nutrients)! Spirulina is the most nutrient-rich food in the world that delivers many health benefits. It’s abundant in essential vitamins and minerals and has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. FUL® sparkling spirulina drinks are made using natural spirulina extract, which keeps all the nutrients of the algae while leaving its taste and smell behind. 

With FUL®, you can enjoy a delicious and nutritious sparkling drink as is or add a bit of your favourite liquor and make a tasty blue cocktail. This is a great choice for people who want to stay healthy and avoid artificial colourings and sweeteners, as, unlike other blue drinks, the blue colour in FUL® beverages is all-natural and derived from phycocyanin - a powerful antioxidant found in spirulina. Plus, FUL® sparkling drinks will be perfect for any non-drinkers at your party who want to try delicious and healthy beverages. 

Blue Hawaiian Coolers

This delicious drink will make you feel like you’re relaxing on a beach while sipping on a rum-and-coconut beverage. One of the most popular blue drinks out there, Blue Hawaiian is very easy to make. All you need is to mix white rum, vodka, Blue Curaçao, and pineapple juice in a blender. Add some lime and lemon juice and simple syrup for sweetness. Strain the mixture into a glass and add some ice to it. Garnish with a pineapple wedge or cocktail cherry if you want.

Midnight Kiss

This delicate and bubbly drink is very easy to make, even if you have only a few minutes. Mix vodka, Blue Curaçao, and lemon juice, and shake the mixture with ice. Then strain the beverage into a sugar-rimmed champagne flute and pour some champagne on top. You get a tasty drink that feels as gentle as a midnight kiss!

Frozen Blue Moscato Margaritas

If you’re a wine lover, you’ll enjoy these tasty margaritas with a hint of sweet Moscato. For this drink, you’ll need granulated sugar, kosher salt, lime wedges, Moscato wine, blue Curaçao, tequila, triple sec, and lime juice. Mix all the ingredients together and serve with ice and blueberries. 

Mermaid Lemonade

This cocktail is a tropical mix of lemonade, blue curacao, and rum that definitely feels like a relaxing day on the beach. Blend the ingredients and serve with ice. We recommend serving it with lemon slices and maraschino cherries.

Deep Blue Vodka Punch

It’s better to prepare this drink well in advance so that it has time to freeze fully. As you serve it, it’ll melt and create foamy white waves. To make this beverage, start by putting some plastic wrap in a Bundt pan and spraying with nonstick cooking spray. Lay some strawberry fruit roll-ups perpendicular to each other, fill about half of the pan with ice cream and tuck the fruit roll-ups over the ice cream. Put it into the freezer and let it freeze completely. In a punch bowl, mix Hawaiian Punch, Sprite, vodka, and add a gummy shark as a garnish. Add the ice cream with fruit roll-ups just before serving.

Tiffany Mimosas

This beautiful blue drink is essentially a classic Mimosa, but its mesmerising colour definitely brings this cocktail to a new level. Before making the cocktail, make sure to refrigerate both the Champagne and Blue Curacao. For this drink, you need a slice of lemon, granulated sugar, blue Curaçao, Champagne or Prosecco, and lemonade. You can decorate the glass with a white ribbon if you want as well. All you need to do is rim each champagne flute with a lemon wedge and dip it in sugar, then pour some blue curacao, fill the glass with champagne halfway, and top with lemonade.  

Jack Frosties

Jack Frosties are a blend of vodka, sparkling wine, Blue Curaçao, and lemonade. These cocktails are delicious for a winter party or dinner. For your Jack Frosites, blend vodka, prosecco, blue curaçao, lemonade, and ice. Then rim each glass with lemon and dip in sugar. Pour the cocktail into rimmed glasses and enjoy your drink!

Mermaid Mules

For these colourful Mermaid mules, you’ll need vodka, Blue Curaçao, lime juice, and ginger beer. Pour vodka, Blue Curaçao, and lime juice into the glasses and stir. Add some ice and top with ginger beer. Garnish with lime slices if you wish. 

Shark Infested Water

This Shark Week-inspired drink is a creative way to diversify your cocktail dinner menu. For the ice cubes, you’ll need to freeze gummy sharks with some seltzer and blue curacao. For the drink itself, mix seltzer with lemonade, white rum, and blue curacao. Fill the glasses with ice and pour the drink. Garnish with lemon rounds. 

Chi Chi

Most recipes of the Chi-Chi cocktail don’t include citrus liqueurs, but this one is special (and extra delicious)! Grab some vodka, Blue Curaçao liqueur, cream of coconut, cubed pineapple, vanilla ice cream, and crushed ice, and blend all the ingredients until smooth. Then pour the cocktail into glasses, garnish with a pineapple wedge, and voila! 

Blueberry Lemonade Margaritas

While this is technically a purple drink, you can always add a splash of FUL® sparkling spirulina drinks, blue curaçao, or some blueberries. By the way, the leftover blueberry syrup works amazingly for sweetening iced tea! 

For the syrup, you need granulated sugar, water, blueberries, and lime. First, dissolve the sugar in water over medium heat, then add blueberries and lime zest and bring to a boil. Then simmer for a few more minutes, strain, and let it cool. For the margarita, you’ll need granulated sugar, kosher salt, tequila, triple sec, lemonade, and ice. Decorate with lemon wedges.

Royal Blue

As you can tell by the name, this drink will make you feel as if you’re drinking at a fancy restaurant. It has a delicious summer flavour with a citrus hint to it. Wet a martini glass with lime juice and dip it in sugar. Mix cranberry juice with vodka, lime juice, Blue Curaçao and ice. Blend until smooth and pour into glasses.

Blueberry Mojito

Mojito is a classic drink, but this fun version gives it a colourful blue hue and a hint of orange flavour. You will need some lime juice, granulated sugar, fresh mint, chopped pineapple, strawberries, blueberries (both for the drink and the garnishes), ice, white rum, and seltzer. You can also garnish your cocktail with a pineapple wedge, strawberry, and/or lime slices.

Blue Creamsicle Mimosas

This is a new take on the traditional Mimosa recipe that gives the drink a creamy and fluffy texture. First, rim your glasses with lemon and dip them in sugar. Stir together blue curaçao, vanilla vodka, and heavy cream. Pour into the glass and top with champagne, prosecco, or cava.

Blue Monday 

Blue Monday is a delicious drink that can make your Mondays (or any other day, for that matter) a little easier. This easy cocktail takes a few minutes to make and is a great choice for those in a hurry. All you need to do is shake vodka, triple sec, and Blue Curaçao with ice, pour it into the glass, and garnish with a lemon twist.

Blue Train

The perfect choice for citrus lovers, Blue Train contains a double dose of citrus liqueur since it includes both Blue Curaçao and Cointreau. We recommend serving it in a chilled martini glass. Shake gin, Cointreau orange liqueur, fresh lemon juice, and Blue Curaçao liqueur, and then strain the cocktail into the glass. Easy and delicious! 

Ocean Water

Who doesn’t like 3-minute drinks? Well, Ocean Water is one of them. It also has a strong vodka flavour, so it’s great for those who love strong cocktails. All you need to do is to put some ice into a glass, pour in Blue Curaçao and coconut vodka and top it with some Sprite or a splash of FUL®. Quickly stir, and you’re all set.
