Description

Northern Lights cocktail sparks midnight magic with electric blue swirls and mysterious Nordic charm. Cool arctic spirits blend seamlessly, delivering unexpected pleasure you won’t forget.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Liquor Ingredients:

  • 1 ounce (30 milliliters) Smirnoff Sours Berry Lemon
  • 1 ounce (30 milliliters) Deep Eddy Lemon Vodka

Energy Drink Ingredient:

  • Red Bull Blueberry, to top

Garnish Ingredients:

  • Lemon wedges, for garnish
  • Fresh blueberries, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Chill a highball glass by filling it with a handful of ice cubes to create a frosty foundation for the cocktail.
  2. Carefully layer Smirnoff Sours Berry Lemon and Deep Eddy Lemon Vodka directly over the ice, allowing the spirits to mingle subtly.
  3. Gently cascade Red Bull Blueberry along the inside of the glass, creating a mesmerizing gradient reminiscent of the aurora borealis.
  4. Artfully arrange fresh blueberries and a vibrant lemon wedge on the rim of the glass for a visual and aromatic accent.
  5. Serve the cocktail immediately to preserve its stunning layered appearance and crisp, refreshing flavor profile.

Notes

  • Experiment with different vodka brands to find your preferred flavor profile, as each brings a unique taste to the cocktail.
  • Use fresh blueberries for garnish to enhance the visual appeal and add a burst of natural sweetness.
  • Create a non-alcoholic version by substituting vodka with lemon-flavored sparkling water and using a blueberry-flavored energy drink.
  • For a more intense flavor, muddle fresh blueberries in the glass before adding the other ingredients to release their natural essence.
