Ingredients

Scale

Main Spirits:

  • 1 ounce (30 milliliters) vodka
  • 1 ounce (30 milliliters) gin
  • 1 ounce (30 milliliters) rum
  • 1 ounce (30 milliliters) triple sec

Mixers and Juices:

  • 2 ounces (60 milliliters) sweet and sour mix
  • Splash of blue curacao

Garnishes:

  • Lime wedges

Instructions

  1. Chill a cocktail shaker by filling it with ice cubes, creating a frosty base for mixing the potent libation.
  2. Pour vodka, gin, rum, and triple sec into the shaker, creating a robust foundation of spirits that will deliver a powerful punch.
  3. Add pineapple juice and sweet and sour mix to balance the alcoholic intensity with a tropical and tangy profile.
  4. Seal the shaker tightly and vigorously shake the contents for 15-20 seconds, ensuring the ingredients are thoroughly combined and uniformly chilled.
  5. Prepare a serving glass by filling it with fresh ice, creating a cool receptacle for the soon-to-be-poured cocktail.
  6. Strain the mixed liquid from the shaker into the prepared glass, allowing a smooth and clean pour that separates the drink from any small ice fragments.
  7. Introduce a splash of blue curaçao, which will transform the liquid’s appearance into a mesmerizing greenish-blue hue reminiscent of laboratory fluid.
  8. Embellish the drink with a vibrant lime wedge perched on the glass rim and optionally scatter a few maraschino cherries for additional visual and flavor complexity.
  9. Serve immediately, presenting a visually striking and potent cocktail that promises an adventurous drinking experience.

Notes

  • Balance the alcohol carefully to avoid overpowering the cocktail’s delicate flavor profile.
  • Use high-quality, clear spirits to maintain the signature bright green color and clean taste.
  • Consider swapping alcohol for mocktail version with non-alcoholic spirits or additional fruit juices for designated drivers or non-drinkers.
  • Chill glasses beforehand to keep the cocktail extra cool and refreshing, enhancing overall drinking experience.
