Blue Wave Drink Recipe

Here's another drink recipe from the Ginny Lane Bar and Grill Penny Cocktail Menu. Of course, they don't tell you how to make it or how much they use, so I've come up with my own directions.

Blue Wave Drink Recipe

Ingredients:
1 ounce Tequila
1/2 ounce Blue Curacao
1/4 ounce Sour Mix

Salt rim of your favorite cocktail glass and fill with ice. Pour ingredients over ice and enjoy.

This is probably my favorite of the 3 recipes on their penny cocktail menu.

I have found a few Blue Curacao drink recipes on each of their sites.
