Blue Lagoon Recipe

Blue Lagoon sounds, looks and tastes very tropical. It is bright blue and reminds you of the southern skies, though it is stronger than you might think. The legends tells us a story of an artist who lived in Paris. The doctors told him he wasn't allowed any alcohol and recommended that he goes to Tahiti. He was ever so upset, that he decided to think of such a tropical drink that would replace the need to go to Tahiti. So now we have the beautiful Blue Lagoon!

It goes without saying that this drink is a perfect option for a hot summer day. But in winter it may be appropriate, too. It would remind you of summer and make you feel more energetic and optimistic.

The ingredients are quite simple, except for the exotic blue curacao. It is a liquer flavoured with dried peel of laraha citrus - a fruit similar to orange, just somewhat bitter. Various flavours may be added to curacao including coffee, caramel, raisin, lemon, spices, etc.
