When You’re Blue

Russia’s Luna-25 spacecraft recently crashed into the moon.  The craft probably looks like it’s been through a blender.  So how appropriate to commemorate the accident with a vodka blender drink!  Sunset Magazine shares how to make a Blue Moon Cocktail.

Ingredients

1 cup crushed ice

1/4 cup vodka

1/4 cup blue curaçao

1/4 cup whipping cream

2 tablespoons vanilla-flavored syrup (such as Torani)

2 tablespoons fresh orange juice

1 tablespoon Cointreau or other orange-flavored liqueur

How to Make It

In a blender, combine all ingredients and whirl until smooth. Pour into four martini glasses (4 oz.) and garnish the rim of each glass with a slice of orange.

Enjoy and shoot for a soft landing.
