Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.66 / 5
The Peacock Porker is a vibrant blue cocktail that combines the clear, neutral flavors of vodka and white rum with the fruity, electric blue hue of WKD Blue, an alcoholic beverage popular in the UK known for its sweet taste and bright color. Typically served in a highball glass, this cocktail offers a visually striking appearance alongside a flavor profile that is likely sweet and artificial due to the WKD, with the spirits serving to give it an alcoholic backbone. Its playful name and striking color make it a conversation piece, suitable for parties and casual gatherings where fun and flashy drinks are desired.
