About
The Mermaid Cocktail is a shimmering, ocean-inspired drink that combines vodka and Blue Curaçao with coconut rum, pineapple juice, and a squeeze of lime for a tropical sour that tastes like a beach vacation in a glass. Its blue-green color is achieved naturally through the Blue Curaçao without any artificial food coloring, and the balance of coconut sweetness, tropical pineapple, citrus, and orange liqueur makes it as complex as it is beautiful. A popular cocktail in tropical resort bars and an Instagram favorite, the Mermaid Cocktail rewards anyone who wants a Blue Curaçao drink that goes a little deeper than the standard fare.
