Jules says
Hi guys, can this be made in a 5litre jug? If so, what would best measurements be?
Kris Longwell says
Hi Jules, absolutely! Measure out in parts. The parts would be 1 part curacao, 1 part vodka, and 2 parts lemonade. Start with a 750 ml bottle of vodka. Measure that out. And then do the math to figure out the other measurements. You may have more than 5 liters, but should be close. Hope this helps! Have fun!!! Let us know how it turns out!
Bally says
Solid! Had no idea it was this simple, I can’t wait to try this out and destress.
Sharon says
Hi Kris & Wesley,
Thank you for the recipe. Do you have any suggestions for substituting lemonade (besides orange juice), while still maintaining the gorgeous blue coloring? Your thoughts would be appreciated. Party on, my friends!
Kris Longwell says
Hi Sharon!! Please forgive the lateness of this reply!! We are sooooo sorry!! Well, lemon or lime juice would be what we would recommend. But, you could use a lemon-lime soda, such as 7-Up or Sprite. That wouldn’t change the blue color and still be yummy. Hope this helps. Let us know if you make the Blue Lagoon and what you think!! Party on!!!! xoxoxo
Sharon says
Oh la la c’est trop jolie! (Oh dear, it’s too pretty!) I’m generally a salty kinda gal (wink, wink), but I like my drinks sweet. I used Sprite. Good call! I also substituted the plain ole Vodka for Svedka Coloda (Coconut flavored Vodka), with just a splash of vanilla. To give it a further Blue Lagoon visual effect, I dropped in a few Swedish fish gummies. SO AMAZING. A real party pleaser! Wish y’all could have been there. Be well and keep the party going!
Margo says
Is there a separate link for the lemonade? I have a surplus of lemons lately and it sounds so refreshing!
kari says
i want a drink like this but it needs to be green??
Lily says
Use orange juice
Peter McCaffrey says
Lucozade sport orange, Cointreau, blue curaçao
Willie says
I made the Blue lagoon and my wife loved it!!! I use my Mixology set to hook it up!!!!
Kris says
Hi.
Can I use sprite por 7up in stead of home madre lemonade?
Kerry says
Fun and enjoyable way to make a drink….made it look so easy.
Kris Longwell says
Thanks, Kerry! It’s such a great drink! Always a crowd pleaser!
Catt says
This is our “house drink” at our parties. If you are in Florida, use Publix brand black raspberry lemonade. This is a very tasty drink. We use a handle of Luksusowa vodka, 2- 750 blue curaçao bottles and 1 gallon of lemonade. Put into a drink stand pitcher.
Melissa Hicks says
I dont make drinks often but this looks good. How big is a tall glass? Just so I know I’m not putting too much lemonade in it. Thank you so much.
Kris Longwell says
Hi Melissa! Just a regular drinking glass. Something similar to a glass that holds a pint of beer. That’s not real specific, but hopefully helps. Let us know what you think!! It’s really delicious!
Donna says
Want to make for my birthday party in a big batch! What’s the recipe for that
krislongwell says
Hi Donna! For a big batch, we go with 750 ml bottle of vodka, 750 ml Curacau and then add three 59 fl oz bottles of lemonade. It’s basically 1 part vodka, 1 part curacau and 2 parts lemonade. Go with more or less lemonade, depending on how potent you want it! It’s so good! We just had a big ole pool party and served a big batch of this and everybody flipped for it! Let us know how it turns out….and most of all…HAPPY BIRTHDAY! xo Kris & Wesley
Donna says
Thank you so much! Touch back after the party tomorrow!
Donna says
It was a HUGE Hit! Thank you and everyone loved it!
krislongwell says
AWESOME!!!!!!! Hope you had a fantastic time!! Thanks for letting us know!!
Jon says
Never made one before and it is the most amazingly refreshing drink ever!! I used New Amsterdam Raspberry Vodka, Bols Blue Curacao, Simply Lemonade and topped with raspberries instead of a cherry. So yum! Thanks for showing me!
krislongwell says
Hey Jon!! Isn’t is sooo good? We just had a big batch this past weekend for an outdoor pool party, and everybody flipped for it! And the raspberries sound perfect!! Thanks so much for letting us know, that really means the world to us. Please stay in touch! All the best, Kris & Wesley
Jenn says
Do you think you could use raspberry vodka for this or would that compete with the orange? (Raspberry vodka tends to be my go to with lemonade, but I am looking for a blue drink for the 4th! 🙂 )
krislongwell says
HI Jenn! Not sure if our reply went through, so we’re sending again. YES! Raspberry vodka would be delicious! Another layer of citrus would be wonderful. Let us know how it turns out….and…HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!! xoxo Kris & Wesley
