How to Make a Blue Lady
ABV Technique Glass 용량
18.0% SHAKE MARTINI 90ml

The Blue Lady is a beautiful blue-colored sour-style cocktail that showcases the art of egg white foam. This cocktail combines the orange notes of blue curaçao with gin's botanical flavors and fresh lemon juice's bright acidity, while egg white creates the signature soft, creamy foam that defines this drink.

The cocktail is crafted using the dry shake technique, where ingredients are first shaken without ice to properly emulsify the egg white, then shaken again with ice to achieve the perfect temperature and dilution. This process creates a beautiful white foam layer on top that contrasts dramatically with the deep blue color of the curaçao, resulting in a visually striking presentation.

With approximately 12% ABV, this cocktail offers gentle strength and incredible drinkability. The egg white provides a silky, luxurious mouthfeel that envelops the palate, while the sweet orange flavors of blue curaçao balance perfectly with the bright acidity of fresh lemon juice. Gin's herbal notes add complexity and depth to the flavor profile.

Perfect for special occasions, brunches, or parties where visual impact matters as much as taste. The beautiful contrast between blue and white evokes images of cloudy skies and creates an elegant, sophisticated atmosphere. This cocktail represents the perfect marriage of classic cocktail technique with stunning visual appeal.
