Helpful tips
- I almost always say use premium liquor and truthfully, I always do when I’m making just a few cocktails, but in this cocktail, a premium vodka isn’t needed – just desired
- Use martini glasses as this shows off the cocktail to its best advantage
- This cocktail doesn’t need a garnish but feel free to add whatever you like that makes it festive
- I love the blue of this cocktail, but if you prefer a more purple witches brew cocktail, double the grenadine
How to make the blue cocktail
Pre-step
Fill your cocktail shaker halfway with ice. Get a measuring glass and martini glasses.
After measuring each ingredient, pour it into the shaker.
Step one
Gather the ingredients: vodka, blue Curacao, pineapple juice and grenadine.

Measure 4 ounces of vodka. (A)
Step three

Step four

Step five
Measure 1 ounce grenadine. (D)
Step six
Cap the shaker and shake for 30 seconds.

Strain the contents of the shaker into two martini glasses. (Isn’t that front martini glass a stunner? I got it at Crate & Barrel!)
And a vertical shot.

“Witches brew??” Now that’s one I’ve never heard of. Sounds… tricky. Or maybe treat-y. Anyway, will have to sample at Halloween because cocktails!

I love the more curved martini glass! Where did you find, who mades it, what is it called? I’ve been looking for something different than the very wide martini glass.
Elaine
Hi Karen. I got that glass from Crate and Barrel. It’s called the Tour Martini (glass). I love it because it is different than the classic glass. I also have a bowl like martini glass from them that is called Oregon Martini Glass. That one is fun too. 🙂 I’m always on the lookout for new and interesting glasses.
