FAQ's
Can I substitute WKD Blue with another blue liqueur if I can't find it?
Yes, if WKD Blue is not available, you can substitute it with other blue liqueurs such as Blue Curaçao mixed with a clear soda to mimic the fizzy, sweet flavor profile of WKD Blue. Keep the volume the same (135ml) to maintain the balance of the cocktail.
Why is the Blue Dolphin stirred and not shaken?
The Blue Dolphin is stirred and not shaken to preserve the carbonation and delicate blend of the ingredients. Shaking can overly aerate and dilute the cocktail, especially since it contains fizzy components like Smirnoff Ice and an energy drink.
What is the best way to serve a Blue Dolphin?
A Blue Dolphin is best served in a pint glass, cold. Fill the glass with ice before adding the ingredients to ensure the drink stays chilled longer. Stir the ingredients gently after pouring them into the glass to mix them without losing carbonation.
How does the alcohol content of a Blue Dolphin compare to a standard beer?
The Blue Dolphin has an alcohol content of 5.59%, which is similar to many mainstream lagers and ales that typically range from 4% to 6% alcohol by volume. This makes it a relatively light alcoholic option similar to having a beer.
What occasions are best suited for serving the Blue Dolphin?
The Blue Dolphin, with its vibrant color and moderate alcohol content, makes it a great choice for summer parties, poolside gatherings, or casual social events where a fun, refreshing, and eye-catching drink is desired. Its lively appearance and taste make it popular among younger adults looking for something different than the usual beer or wine.
