Cocktail Description

The Blue Lagoon Martini captures the essence of a tropical getaway in a glass, with its striking azure hue inviting you to dive right in.

This vibrant cocktail balances the clean character of Ketel One vodka with the subtle sweetness of white cranberry juice, while Giffard Blue Curaçao adds its signature orange notes and eye-catching color. The fresh lime juice brings everything into focus with a bright, zingy finish that keeps the drink from becoming too sweet. It's surprisingly approachable to make at home—just a proper shake with ice and a fine strain delivers professional results. Perfect for summer gatherings or as an impressive cocktail for dinner parties, the Blue Lagoon Martini works beautifully as both a pre-dinner aperitif or alongside light seafood dishes like grilled shrimp or ceviche. The citrus elements in the drink complement the natural flavors of seafood while cutting through richness with its refreshing profile.
