Electric lemonade is a vibrant and refreshing cocktail that combines a few key ingredients to create a delicious and visually stunning drink. To make electric lemonade, you will need vodka, blue curaçao, lemonade, lemon-lime soda or club soda, lime, and ice.
To start, fill a shaker with ice. Add 1.5 ounces of vodka, 1 ounce of blue curaçao, and 3 ounces of lemonade to the shaker. The vodka adds a kick of alcohol, while the blue curaçao brings the vibrant blue color and a hint of orange flavor. The lemonade provides a tart and sweet base for the cocktail.
Once all the ingredients are in the shaker, give it a good shake to mix everything together and chill the drink. The shaking action helps to combine the flavors and ensures that the drink is well-mixed.
Next, fill a glass with ice. This will keep your drink cold and refreshing. Pour the mixture from the shaker into the glass over the ice. The vibrant blue color will immediately catch your eye and make the drink look visually appealing.
To add a little effervescence and extra flavor, you can top off the drink with some lemon-lime soda or club soda. The choice between the two is a matter of personal preference. The soda adds a fizzy element to the cocktail, while the club soda is a bit more subtle in taste. You can add as much or as little soda as you like, depending on how strong you want the carbonation to be.
To enhance the flavor and add a hint of citrus, squeeze a wedge of lime into the drink. The lime juice adds a tangy and refreshing element to balance out the sweetness of the lemonade and orange flavors.
To garnish the drink and make it look even more appealing, you can add lime and lemon wheels. Simply slice a lime and a lemon into thin rounds and place them on the rim of the glass or float them in the drink. This adds a pop of color and a touch of elegance to the cocktail.
And there you have it, a delicious and visually stunning electric lemonade cocktail. The combination of vodka, blue curaçao, lemonade, and soda creates a refreshing and tantalizing drink that is perfect for sipping on a hot summer day or enjoying at a party. Cheers!
