You've gotta love a bright blue summer cocktail! This is one of my favorite vodka drinks because it's sweetly tropical with a little sparkle. The perfect party punch, and a little less blush inducing than the Sex in the Driveway!
This recipe is meant for people over 21 years old. Please drink responsibly.
🥘 Ingredients
This is such an easy cocktail! I love it for summer entertaining because it's pretty, it's light, and it's refreshing!
- Vodka - some people like to use flavored vodkas - I prefer plain but try a few different flavors to see what you like best.
- Blue Curacao
- Lemonade
- Lime is mainly for garnish but it does at a little extra burst of flavor.
- Lemons
- Club soda or lemon lime soda - this really depends on how sweet you like it.
🔪 Instructions
This electric lemonade cocktail goes together really fast!
- Add vodka, blue curaçao, lemonade to an ice filled shaker.
- Shake well. This adds oxygen to the mixture which enhances the flavor.
- Pour into an ice filled glass.
- Add the club soda or lemon lime soda to taste.
- Squeeze in a little lime and lemon.
- Add a lime and/or lemon wheel for garnish.
Expert Tip: Pour the mixture into a freezer container and freeze until slushy!
💭 Tips
- Change the number of servings to "8" to make a great pitcher drink. All of the ingredient measurements will increase. If you don't know how to do this there are instructions on the Start Here page.
- Save calories by using club soda instead of lemon lime!
- Add some lemon and lime wheels to the glass or pitcher for pretty presentation and extra flavor.
- I like to use this drink for 4th of July entertaining. Garnish with a cherry and a square of honeydew melon on a pick... or use a small star shaped cookie cutter to cut the honeydew into stars.
- Got kids? Make them their own, kid friendly Electric Lemonade by mixing half blue Kool Aid and half Sprite, then dropping in a lime wheel.

Personally, I don't think there's anything as civilized as the practice of cocktails by the pool in the summer. Not that I have a pool but sometimes I'll stick my feet in the old horse tank and pretend.
To me, a cocktail like this beautiful, blue electric lemonade is a way to force myself to take a break and allow myself to relax. It breaks the day up between work and not-work.
Kinda tastes like a vacation.
Shake up this pretty, blue summer cocktail and let the party begin! It makes a great pitcher drink, too.
