Blue Lagoon Mocktail

Blue Lagoon Mocktail is a simple, family-friendly drink made with blue curacao syrup, lemon-lime soda and lemonade garnished with swedish fish and a maraschino cherry on an umbrella. A non-alcoholic spin on the Blue Lagoon cocktail. 

My daughter is about to turn seven in a few weeks and she requested a mermaid party! Of course, I have the tendency to go a bit overboard with the food and decorations. I found these cool fishbowls on Amazon and knew a bright blue drink would be a must-have and add to the overall look of the mermaid theme. One of the coolest blue drinks I have had is called a Blue Lagoon cocktail which is made with blue curacao liqueur, lemonade and vodka. Since this is a kids birthday, lemon-lime soda was used instead of vodka and blue curacao liqueur was replaced with a syrup. Easy, fun and on theme- birthday drink perfection. 

Blue Lagoon Mocktail

Blue Lagoon Mocktail tastes refreshing and a little fruity. My kids thought it tasted like a blue popsicle and I honestly agree! The gorgeous blue color has some really awesome mermaid party vibes but would also be fun for other party themes like Under the Sea or why need an event at all? These mocktails would be ideal to sip by the pool on a hot summer day. 

Process

Fill with ice!

 

Then…

Add blue curacao syrup!

What is blue curacao syrup? 

Blue curacao syrup has a very light orange flavor with an orange aromatic smell. You will find this syrup to be very sweet and vivid in color making it a great non-alcoholic addition to a drink for the taste, smell and appearance. 

Next….

Add some lemonade. 

… and stir. 

Finishing touch

Top off with a lemon-lime soda.

I used Sprite but 7UP or another store brand would work. Then garnish for fun. Toss in a couple swedish fish gummies into glass, put a maraschino cherry on a cocktail umbrella and add a colorful flexible straw.
