Blue Curacao is a vibrant blue liqueur that is primarily used as an ingredient in cocktails. It is flavored with the dried peel of the Laraha citrus fruit, which is a bitter orange native to the island of Curaçao. This liqueur adds a distinctive color and a slightly sweet, citrusy flavor to beverages, making it a popular choice for creating visually striking drinks.

As an alcoholic ingredient, Blue Curacao typically has an alcohol content ranging from 15% to 40% by volume. It is often used in tropical and tiki-style cocktails, such as the Blue Lagoon and the Blue Hawaiian, where it contributes both its vivid color and its refreshing taste. Bartenders also use it to add a touch of elegance and exotic flair to various mixed drinks, enhancing their overall appeal.
