Method

Cocktail

Prepare glass (optional)

If you prefer a sugared rim, rub a lemon wedge around the glass rim, then dip the rim into a shallow plate of sugar. Fill the glass with ice and set aside.

In a cocktail shaker fill with ice about halfway.

Add 2 oz Ketel One Citroen, 0.5 oz Blue Curaçao, 0.75 oz fresh lemon juice, and 0.5 oz simple syrup to the shaker.

Shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until the outside of the shaker is cold and ingredients are well combined and slightly diluted.

Strain the shaken mixture into the prepared glass over fresh ice (use a Collins or highball glass).

Top gently with 3 oz Starry (or lemon-lime soda). Pour slowly over the back of a spoon if you prefer a layered look; otherwise just top and stir once gently to integrate.

Garnish & Serve

Garnish with a lemon wheel on the rim and a sprig of fresh mint tucked into the ice.

Serve immediately with a straw. Advise the drinker to stir before sipping if a layered appearance was created.
