Curacao is an exquisite and very specific club liqueur, which is an auxiliary element for creating a variety of. It is impossible to drink curacao in its pure form, because it contains a large amount of food coloring, which stains the entire oral cavity, including the teeth, keeping the shade of the drink on them for up to several days. In addition, the liquor has a too sugary sweet taste, and the fortress is about 24-.
Most often, fruit, ice cream, and other desserts are served with liquor. In addition, curacao can be combined with coffee or tea.
Curaçao is three color schemes: bright (most popular because of the ability to glow in neon lights), bright red, almost bloody, and rich green. Yellow and transparent curacao are not popular, it is difficult to judge the reasons, but most likely this is due to chemical flavoring additives that give the liquor a citrus smell and taste.
Making cocktails with Curacao
One of the most popular blue curacao cocktails is the Blue Hawaii cocktail. Pineapple juice is added to 30 grams of liquor - at least 100 grams, a small amount of rum and coconut milk or cream liqueur. A significant amount of ice in the form or several large cubes of frozen water is appropriate.
The Bikini Tini cocktail is also famous. It consists of vodka, Blue Curacao syrup, pineapple juice, Passion syrup and sour mix. Mix 50 grams of vodka and 30-40 grams of curacao, bring the resulting volume to 200 grams with pineapple juice. Passion and sour mix are added to the cocktail, already poured into glasses, creating sometimes bizarre patterns on top of the liquid of the cocktail. This drink is served in a cocktail glass and garnished with mint leaves and a cherry.

Quite often you can find the Tsunami cocktail. It consists of 30 grams of cold tequila, 20 grams of Blue Curacao syrup, 10 grams of lemon juice, 10-15 grams of sugar syrup, and a few drops of red tabasco. Usually, all ingredients, except for the sugar syrup, are mixed with a shaker, and the thick sugar syrup is added to the glass as a top layer. You need to drink a cocktail in one gulp, and the name itself already speaks about the consequences.

Blue Curacao– very popular among bartenders Caribbean orange cream liqueur from the genus Curacao brightly – of blue color with a fortress of 24-31%.
Taste and aroma the drink is specific - you can catch light notes of orange, mandarin and spices in them.
Motherland- one of the southern Dutch islands of the West Indies, washed by the waves caribbean and called Curaçao.
Story:
In the 14th century, the Spaniards said: "Oranges are here to be!" and brought to the island seedlings of trees with orange fruits, covering a small piece of land with them. But the sweetest Valencian varieties from absence fresh water quickly degenerated here into small and bitter.
In the 16th century, the Dutch began to come to the abandoned plantations, who did not exhaust the bitter oranges, but called them "laraha".
In the 18th century, part of the "laraha" plantations began to belong to the family of Petrus De Kuyper. The enterprising owner of the De Kuyper company tried to use orange crops to make liquor.
After 300 years, (at the end of the 1920s), the same company created the first Curacao liqueur with the Blue color, which quickly became popular and was already produced by other enterprises in Holland, France, and the Czech Republic.
Undoubtedly, De Kuyper is still the leader in the production of blue liquor.
By the way, this drink won the heart of Lenin himself.
Types and varieties:
Why is Curaçao liqueur blue? It's a stupid PR stunt.
The first Curacao liqueurs were transparent (because they were prepared on white rum), but to increase sales, De Kuyper marketers dyed the drink blue (and not only). They did it with natural dyes, which in an alkaline environment acquired the desired cornflower blue shade.
But many other manufacturers of Curacao use food "nuts" for this, of which only E 133 (shiny blue) can be considered harmless. Dyes E131 and E132 are no longer so harmless.
It is known that in addition to blue (Blue) Curacao is white color(White), green Curacao (Green) and orange (Orange).
Action on the body: improves the process of digestion. 
How to serve and drink properly:
Blue Curacao is a beautiful but peculiar drink. Due to its specific taste, high sweetness and strength, it is almost never drunk without dilution. In addition to ice, you need to add at least juice (from an orange or pineapple) to it - and it will give you pleasure.
Being a digestif, it is served after meals, usually in cocktails, where the liquor skillfully beats all other components (which is why it is a favorite of bartenders).
The most famous Blue Curacao cocktails have a “blue” prefix - “”, “Blue Hawaii”, “Blue Margarita”. But there are, of course, names that do not betray the presence of blue liquor in the cocktail, for example, “Burning Ferrari”.
There is also a non-alcoholic analogue of liquor - Blue Curacao syrup, which is usually produced by the same company as its alcohol-containing counterpart.
Production secrets:
As mentioned above, the best blue liqueur of Curacao is produced in Holland and is branded by De Kuyper. The drink is bottled in 0.7 liter bottles and sold at a price of 15 - 25 US dollars apiece. A syrup with the same name usually costs half as much.
The more original components of the liquor are replaced by De Kuyper's competitors with cheaper ones (non-natural and/or harmful), the lower the cost of the bottle.
In the original, the technology provides for the infusion of the peel of “laraha” (bitter) oranges in wine alcohol, where spices are introduced to push the boundaries of taste - clove buds, crushed nutmeg, crushed into pieces of cinnamon sticks.
The blue color of the tincture is due to anthocyanins - natural colors that blackcurrants and blueberries, black grapes and eggplants can boast of, cauliflower and basil. Extracts from them (and / or other plants) color the drink in such a wonderful color.
So there is nothing complicated in the composition of a world-famous liquor, but the proportions are known only to the manufacturer.
Blue Curacao liqueur (homemade recipe):
In some countries (not to mention cities) it can be difficult (or impossible) to get a good liquor. Therefore, you can try to cook it at home, especially since it is still better than buying a low-quality fake.
For the first time they began to do this in the West, but the recipes of foreign craftsmen required adaptation, which was successfully carried out in the vastness of our boundless Motherland.
By the way, about the dye: you can give the drink a blue color, or you can not give it - after all, there are other colors of liquor, and most importantly, it still has a hint of taste.

Liqueurs various kinds are very popular not only because of their medium strength, but also for their refreshing taste and balanced aroma.
Some of them immediately attract attention with their unusual appearance. This is especially true of the Blue Curacao liqueur, whose specific color is blue.
This alcoholic drink is actively used to prepare a variety of cocktails, because with its help even the most ordinary drink easily turns into elite alcohol.
This liqueur owes its unusual color and pleasant citrus aroma to a specific production technology.
The main ingredient used to make this drink is lurah. What kind of fruit is this?
Reference! Luraja is actually a descendant of the Valentian oranges, which were brought to the Caribbean by the Spaniards. However, due to the unsuitable climate, instead of juicy and sweet citrus fruits, such bitter-sour fruits were born.
Luraha is not suitable for human consumption, but its peel is highly valued due to its pronounced and rich aroma.
The very process of making Blue Curacao liqueur consists of the following steps:
- Larah zest, along with spices such as cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg, is placed in special jute bags.
- Raw materials are poured in special containers with alcohol preheated to 50 - 75 degrees.
- The containers are closed and left to infuse in a dark place for three days.
- The resulting infusion is driven through the distillate, then a little sugar is added and filtered.
- A dye is added to the resulting liquor to give it a characteristic blue color, because the finished alcohol is generally colorless, but very fragrant.
Important! The quality of the finished Blue Curacao also depends on what kind of dye was used in its production. Famous brands prefer to color the drink with juice or extract of natural berries and fruits.
But unscrupulous manufacturers use synthetic additives for this.
It is important to know that the lurahi fruits themselves on the island of Curaçao are harvested only in the old fashioned way, that is, by hand. And so that the zest does not lose its unique aroma, it is also cut from all fruits by hand, using knives made of wood.
