Blue Lagoon

Ah, my cherished assemblage of cocktail connoisseurs, today we delve into the cerulean depths, embarking on a mixological voyage as azure as the glistening pools of the Amalfi coast. We are crafting the Blue Lagoon, a libation as mysterious and inviting as the waters of its namesake, a potion that promises to transport you to a realm of aquatic allure and effervescent enchantment.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 oz (45 ml) vodka, as clear and pure as the driven snow upon which not a single Rose has trodden
• 1 oz (30 ml) blue curaçao, the essence of our lagoon’s mesmerizing hue, as captivating as Moira’s most intricate ensemble
• 1 oz (30 ml) lemonade, as refreshing as a brisk breeze across the Moira’s Rose’s herbaceous bosom
• Ice, the silent sentinel standing guard over our concoction’s integrity
• A slice of lemon or a cherry, for garnish, the pièce de résistance that completes our masterpiece with a flourish

Directions

1. In a highball glass, as statuesque and dignified as Johnny on the evening of the Galapagos event, cradle the ice with the tenderness of a mother to her newborn.
2. Introduce the vodka and blue curaçao to one another, stirring gently, as one might attempt to amalgamate the disparate personalities within the Rose family.
3. Top with lemonade, the sweet symphony to our visual sonnet, as invigorating as Alexis’s most audacious escapades.
4. Adorn with a lemon slice or a cherry, a garnish as essential as the right accessory to Moira’s most daring outfits.

Tips

• The choice of vodka is paramount; it must be as refined and sophisticated as Moira’s lexicon.
• The blue curaçao, while a feast for the eyes, must also be of a quality that sings to the palate, as harmonious as a Jazzagals performance.

Calories & Alcohol

In our parting, my beloved cohorts of the cocktail craft, the Blue Lagoon is not just a beverage; it is a voyage, a sojourn through the spectrum of taste and color, leaving you as refreshed as a dip in its eponymous waters.

As the curtain falls on our cerulean saga, be advised that this elixir of liquid serenity contains approximately 214 calories, with an alcohol content that performs a delicate ballet at about 1.5 standard drinks (2.7 AUD). A modest levy for a journey to the lagoon’s embrace.
