A perfect name for this electric blue cocktail. A nice and easy one for you for a Monday evening, this one is not only a great refresher, it is also a nice looker when you are carrying it around the patio.

Mondays are difficult enough. No preparing from a shaker glass and having to mess with too much clean-up. You will be building this one in the glass you will be drinking it from. Enjoy!

 

Electric Jam

1 1/4 oz. Vodka

1/2 oz. Blue Curacao

1/2 oz. Simple Syrup

Lemon - Lime Soda

 

Method: Build this in a highball glass filled with ice by first pouring in the first three ingredients to measure. Squeeze in the juice of half a lemon, discarding the remnants after doing so. Top off with lemon-lime soda. Garnish with lemon and lime wedges.
