Blue Curacao Syrup Recipe

March 2024

This is a blue Curacao syrup recipe based on the blue Curaçao liquor.

It is non-alcoholic and has a sweet orange flavor with a slightly bitter finish.

It's perfect to make blue cocktails or mocktails, such as a Blue Lagoon mocktail or Blue Hawaiian mocktail.

Add the orange peel and sugar to a medium saucepan. Rub the sugar into the peel to release the orange oils.

1

Add in the water and citric acid. Place saucepan over medium heat. When simmering, lower the heat until the sugar has dissolved.

2

Let the orange steep in the syrup and cool down to room temperature. Pour the mixture through a muslin cloth and into a glass bowl.

3

Add in the blue food coloring, a tiny bit at a time until it’s the color you like.

4

Blue Curaçao is a brilliant deep blue. Once it’s mixed into drinks, it becomes much lighter.

Pour the blue Curacao syrup into a clean glass jar or airtight container.
