Instructions

This visually striking cocktail brings together the sweetness and refreshing qualities of mint and lime with a vibrant layering effect that showcases a rich red seamlessly transitioning into a mesmerizing blue. Served in a highball glass, this drink not only tantalizes the taste buds but is also a feast for the eyes, perfect for summer evenings or as a conversation starter at any gathering. Ingredients: - 1 oz Grenadine - 1 oz Blue Curaçao - 2 oz White Rum - 1 oz Lime Juice (freshly squeezed) - 1/2 oz Simple Syrup (adjust to taste for extra sweetness) - 8-10 Fresh Mint Leaves - Crushed Ice - Club Soda - Garnish: Mint Sprig and a thin slice of lime Glass: - Highball Glass Instructions: 1. Begin by chilling the highball glass: fill it with ice cubes and set aside. 2. In a cocktail shaker, muddle the fresh mint leaves gently to release their aroma and oil. Do not shred the leaves. 3. Add the white rum, lime juice, and simple syrup to the shaker filled with ice cubes. 4. Shake well until the outside of the shaker feels cold. 5. Remove the ice from the highball glass and pour grenadine directly into the bottom of the glass. 6. Fill the glass with crushed ice up to about halfway. 7. Strain the mixture from the shaker slowly over the back of a spoon onto the ice in the glass, allowing it to float over the grenadine without mixing immediately. 8. Gently pour the blue curaçao over the back of a spoon to create the next layer. Do this step slowly to maintain distinct layers between the red and blue colors. 9. Top the drink with a splash of club soda to create some fizz and to slightly blend the colors at the top, giving you that beautiful gradient from red to blue. 10. Garnish with a sprig of mint and a thin slice of lime on the rim of the glass. 11. Serve immediately and enjoy the burst of sweet, minty, and lime flavors, accented by the visual appeal of sunset hues.
