Awesome Tangy Blue Champagne Cocktail

I love the electric blue colour of this wonderful looking cocktail. The first time I attempted to make this cocktail I had never tasted blue curaçao before. I had no idea what the flavour was going to be like, all I knew was I loved the colour.

I remember my first sip. WOW. I was so shocked when I tasted the delicious tangy orange flavour, it took my be surprise as I was expecting something cool and refreshing. This tangy blue champagne cocktail has become a firm favourite recipe of mine. They are quick and easy to make, perfect for any celebration!

Ingredients:

• Champagne
• 1 fl oz Blue Curaçao syrup
• 1 fl oz orange infused vodka*
• Coloured Cocktail Sugar** (optional)
• Sugar Cane Syrup (optional)
• Cherry & Orange Slice (optional)

*We used Grey Goose Orange flavoured vodka as it was already pre-infused, but you can infuse any vodka with orange yourself.
** We have also coloured sugar with syrups, which was messy but fun ;) Do it in advance and allow the sugar to dry out.

Method:

• Pour a little sugar cane syrup in a saucer and dip the rim of the champagne glasses into it
• Next dip the rim of the champagne glasses into the cocktail sugar
• Add the vodka and blue curaçao to the glass.
• Fill to the brim with champagne
• Garnish with cherry and orange slice.

I really hope you give this quick recipe a try. They are simply delicious and super fast to make. You can also use different flavours of vodka and syrup to create your own recipe ideas.
