The Best Blue Cocktail

Teaquila

This is the perfect Butterfly Pea Flower cocktail recipe. How can I be sure that I've perfected the recipe? After trying it everywhere... various bars, restaurants, and private gatherings. Bartenders don't do the one crucial thing: you must infuse the flowers into the liquor.

Empress Gin has managed this with their vibrant liquors, but I'm not a fan of their gin. I prefer to infuse my selected liquor with Butterfly Pea Flowers to achieve the colors and flavors I want. This step is vital!

Infuse the flowers into your liquor of choice. The hue of the liquor will vary based on the quantity of flowers used and the infusion time. I recommend leaving the flowers to infuse for 24 to 36 hours, then straining them out. Use a balanced liquor, like a dry gin or true tequila blanco. A high quality vodka will do as well. Choose your liquor well!

Cocktail recipe is a 1 to 1 to 1:

pour 1st: 1 shot of flower-infused liquor

pour 2nd: 1 shot of simple syrup

pour 3rd: 1 shot of freshly squeezed lemon juice

Play around! There is room to experiment with the simple syrup, choice of citrus, and your imagination.
