The Lagoon

3 min read

Friday's here, which means it's time to start thinking about your next weekend happy hour. This week, we're switching things up — no single glass, just one big bowl built for everyone to share.

Meet The Lagoon

Bold, blue, and made for a crowd. Vodka and pineapple juice keep it easy to drink, blue curaçao gives it that unmistakable lagoon color, and a splash of lemon-lime soda right before serving keeps it fizzy. One bowl, done once, enjoyed all afternoon.

You'll need:

• 2 cups vodka
• 1 cup blue curaçao
• 4 cups pineapple juice
• 2 cups lemon-lime soda
• 1 large ice block or ring
• Pineapple wedges, lime wheels, and mint sprigs, for garnish

How to build it:

1. In a large punch bowl, combine the vodka, blue curaçao, and pineapple juice. Stir to combine.
2. Add a large ice block or ring to keep it cold without watering down too fast.
3. Right before serving, pour in the lemon-lime soda and stir gently to keep the fizz.
4. Float pineapple wedges, lime wheels, and mint sprigs on top. Ladle into glasses over ice to serve.

Cheers, and happy Friday. 🌴
