Blue Zen Cocktail

The Blue Zen Cocktail is a vibrant and visually appealing drink known for its blue colour. It typically includes ingredients such as vodka or coconut rum and blue curaçao (a blue liqueur flavoured with the dried peel of the laraha citrus fruit). Traditionally, the Blue Zen cocktail is more commonly associated with the use of vodka as the base spirit. Vodka’s neutral flavour profile allows the vibrant blue colour and other flavours in the cocktail to stand out. It provides a versatile canvas for the other ingredients to shine. However, the coconut rum variation of the Blue Zen cocktail has gained popularity in recent years as well. The addition of coconut rum adds a tropical twist and a hint of sweetness to the drink, appealing to those who enjoy a more exotic flavour profile.

For an extra flavourful cocktail, I also add Hpnotiq into the mix. I had this version of the Blue Zen cocktail in a restaurant and I was hooked! Hpnotiq is a brand of liqueur that is known for its vibrant blue colour and fruity flavour. It was first introduced in 2001 and has gained popularity as a trendy and eye-catching cocktail ingredient. Hpnotiq is made from a blend of premium vodka, tropical fruit juices (such as mango and pineapple), and a hint of natural flavours. The result is a sweet and refreshing liqueur with a distinct blue hue. Hpnotiq is often used in cocktails to add a splash of colour and tropical flavour, and it pairs well with other spirits like vodka and rum.
