Rating
The Cobalt cocktail is a vibrant and refreshing drink perfect for those who enjoy fruity and citrus flavors. Served in a highball glass, this cocktail combines the sweetness of lemonade with the tang of lime cordial, creating a balanced base.
The addition of Tropical Sourz contributes a burst of exotic fruitiness, while the orange liqueur imparts a smooth and sophisticated citrusy depth. The Cobalt's inviting color palette and tropical undertones make it an ideal choice for summer gatherings or as a cheerful pick-me-up on a sunny afternoon.

FAQ's
What gives the Cobalt cocktail its distinctive blue color?
The distinctive blue color of the Cobalt cocktail comes from the Blue Curaçao, a citrus-flavored liqueur colored with food dye to give cocktails a vibrant blue appearance.
What type of glass is recommended for serving a Cobalt cocktail?
A Cobalt cocktail is best served in a highball glass, according to the recipe details. This type of glass is tall, ensuring there's enough room to top the cocktail with lemonade and accommodate plenty of ice.
How does the alcohol content in a Cobalt compare to other cocktails?
The Cobalt cocktail has a relatively low alcohol content at 3%. This is significantly lower compared to many classic cocktails, which can have alcohol content as high as 20-40% ABV, making the Cobalt a lighter, more refreshing choice.
Is there a non-alcoholic version of the Cobalt cocktail, and how can it be made?
Yes, a non-alcoholic variation of the Cobalt can be made by substituting the alcoholic ingredients (Tropical Sourz and Blue Curaçao) with non-alcoholic blue syrup or cordial and a tropical juice blend. Maintain the lime cordial and lemonade for a similar flavor profile.
Can the Cobalt cocktail be customized for someone who prefers a sweeter drink?
To customize the Cobalt cocktail for a sweeter palate, consider adding more lime cordial or a splash of simple syrup. Adjusting the amount of lemonade can also help balance the sweetness to your liking.
