It's honestly really great. The mezcal is perfectly accentuated by the cinnamon and peach where the Suze adds just a little more body without making the cocktail bitter. A thing I like about the blue curacao is that it's not too orangey. It's there in the background supporting the other components.

Don't be scared off by any preconceptions you might have about "blue cocktails" - this one is seriously good.

It's a little too easy to consign blue drinks to the category 'party time'. This would certainly go down a treat at your next soiree but there is nothing frivolous about it. We can imagine sipping on it late night while listening to Billie Holiday singing plaintively of her blues. We didn't have the peach liqueur so used an apricot liqueur (Merlet) instead.

Made this before and really liked it, made again and replaced the quantities of the cinnamon syrup with peche de vigne.... 5+*

Nice! More serious in flavour than its gimmicky colour suggests.

Added a little Suze, gentian liqueur, which added not only a pleasant bitter dimension, but also changed the colour towards the turquoise/aqua spectrum, as Suze is yellow.

This has been basically the only drink I've drunk this year.

It's genuinly made me less interested in trying other drinks because I kmow I can just make this and be delighted.

As previously noted this is a wolf in disco clothing. However not especially memorable.

A hit. Much stronger than it looks. Went perfectly with our spicy dinner. Well balanced with just a hint of smoky.

Really recommend peach bitters if you're making this with a cinnamon syrup that isn't infused with gentian. Fantastic.

Substituted with:
Komos Anejo Cristalino Tequila
Drillaud Blue Curaçao
Montbisue pêche
Vincenzi Blanco Aperitif lemon & ginger 15ml

No syrup & no water

Just shaken over ice

Although the cocktail looks like party and candy it is really serious. It needs to be balanced depending on your products.
