Deep Blue - Summary

The Deep Blue cocktail is a visually captivating drink that combines the crisp, clean spirit of vodka with the vibrant hue of blue curaçao, and the effervescence of champagne. The result is a refreshing and elegant cocktail with a striking blue color, reminiscent of the ocean's depths. The addition of a blue maraschino cherry not only enhances the drink's aesthetic appeal but also provides a subtle hint of sweetness that complements the other ingredients. The balance of flavors makes the Deep Blue a sophisticated choice for those looking to impress at a gathering or to enjoy a moment of luxury.

The Deep Blue cocktail's origins are somewhat elusive, as is often the case with modern mixed drinks. However, it likely emerged from the growing popularity of blue curaçao in the cocktail world, which gained traction for its ability to transform drinks into visually stunning creations. Blue curaçao, a liqueur made from the dried peel of the laraha citrus fruit, brings both color and a hint of orange flavor to the cocktail scene. By pairing it with vodka and champagne, the Deep Blue offers a unique take on the classic sparkling cocktail, providing a delightful experience that appeals to both the eyes and the palate.

This drink style is classified as a Cocktail and is Alcoholic, so drink responsibly! The recommended glass type for this drink is a Rocks or Old-Fashioned Glass. We say, feel free to serve it in whatever you have available; it will still taste the same :)

You may also use different variations of the same ingredient. For example, you could change up fruit types or sugar substitutes. Other substitutions would include different brands of liquor.
