Instructions
Prepare the Glass
Begin by rimming your glass with sugar. Wet the rim with a small amount of lemon juice and dip it into sugar to create a sparkly effect.
Mix the Cocktail
In a cocktail shaker, add the Blue Curacao, vodka, lemon juice, and simple syrup. Shake well to combine.
Build the Drink
Add ice cubes to your prepared glass. Slowly pour the mixed cocktail over the ice, allowing the colors to swirl naturally as you pour.
Add the Fizz
Top off the drink with lemon-lime soda to add a refreshing fizz and give the drink that "swirl" effect.
Finish with Magic
Sprinkle a pinch of edible glitter into the drink to add some shimmer. It’ll gently float around, creating the perfect starry effect.
Garnish
Add a star-shaped garnish to the rim of the glass for that extra touch of sparkle.
Notes
💫 Pro Tip: Create Your Own Swirl Effect!
If you’d like to enhance the swirl, pour the ingredients slowly over a spoon, letting them mix naturally as they fall into the glass. This will help create those dreamy, galaxy-like layers.
