Just because you may not be headed to New Orleans to celebrate Mardi Gras you can still bring the colors and flavors of the party right to your own celebration. Everyone knows that one of the most famous signature cocktails in New Orleans is the Hurricane. I was in New Orleans a few months ago and had one myself at the famous bar that created them. So now it is my turn to create a new Mardi Gras inspired cocktail.

I love using blue curacao in cocktails, not only for the blue color but for the unique bitter and sweet flavor of fresh oranges. My favorite blue Curacao is Cocktail Artist Blue Curacao Syrup that is made with pure cane sugar.

And if you are still trying to pronounce “Curacao” here’s my hint so you’ll never have a problem again – “cure-ah-sow”.
