Vivid blue with a pale blue head, this is a striking cocktail. It also packs a whopping 45ml (1½oz) of blue curaçao but is far from being a "disco drink"...
By error, I did 45 mils of gin and 30 of blue Curaçao. Still very enjoyable, and one’s eyes enjoy drinking in the electric blue colour as much as the throat, the liquid, even on the palette it is perhaps lacking in complexity.
Je viens de réaliser cette Dame bleue mais n'ayant plus de gin sec, je l'ai remplacé par un gin à la violette et ma fois le résultat était très agréable en bouche...
Votre site reste pour moi la référence pour les cocktails Mr Difford's, encore bravo !
like someone else commented, a bit too sweet and one dimensional, but very easy to drink

I'm not a gin fan (prefer bourbon) but this is a really nice drink. Slightly unusual; but easy to make, looks stunning and is well balanced. I'd be proud to serve this up to unsuspecting guests, and could quite easily drink several myself.
It looks nice, the texture is good but it tastes very boring.
Poured it back in the shaker, added some orange bitters and 1.5cl home made cream of coconut. I really enjoyed it after this adjustment.
