Easy tropical drink that’s quick to make in either single serving or a large batch! This Ocean Breeze co*cktail is a delicious mixture of blue curacao, rum and lemonade. Perfectly refreshing on a hot summer day at the lake, pool or a backyard party!

It’s that time to start thinking about what icy cold drinks to serve at all the backyard parties, BBQs, and pool parties this summer, and I have a great one for you to try: an ocean breeze co*cktail!

It’s a refreshing boozy summer drink you can make for a crowd or scale-down and just make for you.

I love blue co*cktails during the summer – they remind me of relaxing days at the lake and BBQs! It’s a perfect sipping drink that is citrusy and the best thing on a hot day.

All About Easy Blue Curacao co*cktail Recipe!

Blue curacao is a type of liqueur that has a citrus flavor, similar to triple sec. The big difference is that it’s blue colored so it’s perfect for making summer drinks that look as refreshing as they are to drink.

For an ocean breeze drink, you combine it with rum and lemonade for a super simple drink. You can make it by the pitcher for parties or I’m also sharing how to make a single drink.

Break out all the pool snacks like chips, salsa, and guacamole and mix up one of these delicious drinks to go with them. You are going to love it!
