Ingredients

Scale

For the Cocktail

  • 1 1/2 ounces KINKY Pink vodka liqueur
  • 1/2 ounce vodka
  • 1/2 ounce fresh lime juice
  • 3 ounces hard ginger beer
  • Crushed ice
  • Lime wedges (for garnish)
  • Cubed mango (for garnish)

For the Blue Ice

  • Liquid butterfly pea flower extract (4-5 drops per ice cube)
  • Cold water (to fill ice cube tray)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cocktail Mixture: In a cocktail shaker filled halfway with crushed ice, combine 1 1/2 ounces KINKY Pink vodka liqueur, 1/2 ounce vodka, and 1/2 ounce fresh lime juice. Shake vigorously for 30 seconds to chill and blend the flavors well.
  2. Fill the Glass: Fill a clear mule mug or similar glass with crushed ice. Strain the vodka and lime mixture into the glass over the crushed ice. Top the drink with 3 ounces of hard ginger beer for a spicy and bubbly finish.
  3. Make the Blue Crushed Ice: To create the striking blue crushed ice, add 4-5 drops of liquid butterfly pea flower extract to each ice cube compartment in an ice tray. Fill the tray with cold water and freeze until solid. Once frozen, crush the blue ice cubes and carefully layer a portion on top of the drink.
  4. Garnish and Serve: Garnish the cocktail with fresh cubed mango and lime wedges to enhance the tropical flavor and visual appeal. Serve immediately and enjoy the vibrant colors and refreshing taste.

Notes

  • Use hard ginger beer (alcoholic) for added flavor complexity; non-alcoholic ginger beer can be used for a milder taste.
  • Butterfly pea flower extract can be found at specialty tea shops or online; it provides natural vibrant blue color and a subtle floral note.
  • The blue ice not only adds color but also a magical visual effect when added to the drink.
  • Shake the cocktail mixture well to ensure it is properly chilled and blended.
  • Use fresh lime juice for the best citrus flavor.
  • This recipe makes 1 serving but can be easily scaled up for parties.
