What is Blue Curacao?

Have you ever wondered what makes a drink blue? Whether it’s a Blue Lagoon, a Blue Passion or any other blue cocktail, it’s probably a Curacoa based beverage.

Curacao is a colorless liqueur similar to triple sec or other citrus-based liqueurs. The blue color which can sometimes be green comes from food coloring.

Blue Curacao is named after the Island of Curacao that was discovered by the Spanish in 1499. These settlers thought they could plant and harvest Valencia Orange plants from Spain. Long story short, the scorching sun and dry climate made these trees so reviling that even the goats wouldn’t go near them. Decades later, the dried-up peels were gathered and soaked in alcohol. The extract created the Curacao liqueur we know and adore today!

There are several cocktails that use Blue Curacao as one of their main ingredients. Here are a few popular cocktails using it:

The Blue Lagoon: This is a popular summer cocktail. It is typically garnished with an orange slice to compliment the flavor of Curacao. One variation adds a dash of lime cordial and another a dash of grenadine.

Blue Passion: This infamous blue cocktail is made with Curacao, white rum, lime juice, and sugar syrup.

Cosmopolitan: James Bond is likely to order a cosmopolitan. And, he probably gets the same blue tinge from Curacao.
