The Wickedy Bu is a sweet and tropical cocktail that melds the creamy, nutty flavors of coconut rum with the fruity, carbonated punch of WKD blue, an alcoholic mix known for its bright blue color and vibrant taste. Served in a lowball glass, this drink is layered in hues, mixing the allure of the Caribbean with the playful vibrancy of a party-ready beverage.
The sweetness of the coconut rum is designed to complement the boldness of the WKD blue, creating a taste profile that is light and indulgent, with a fun aesthetic that could make a splash at casual gatherings and summer festivities.

FAQ's
What is the ideal way to serve the Wickedy Bu cocktail?
The Wickedy Bu should be served cold in a lowball glass. Since it's not a shaken cocktail, ensure you stir the ingredients well, especially after adding ice, to maintain its chill without dilution from the ice melting too quickly.
Can I substitute the coconut rum in the Wickedy Bu with another type of rum?
Yes, you can substitute coconut rum with another type of flavoured rum if you prefer a different taste profile. However, note that this will significantly alter the cocktail's flavor. White rum can be a more neutral substitute, but consider adding a dash of coconut syrup or extract to retain the tropical character of the drink.
How can I customize the Wickedy Bu to better suit my taste?
Customizing the Wickedy Bu can be as simple as adjusting the ratio of coconut rum to WKD blue to alter the strength and sweetness to your liking. Additionally, you can add a splash of lemon or lime juice for a tart contrast or garnish with a slice of pineapple or a cherry for a tropical flair.
How does the alcohol content of Wickedy Bu compare to other popular cocktails?
The Wickedy Bu has an alcohol content of 11.2%, which places it on the lower end of the spectrum compared to more potent cocktails like a Margarita (around 13% to 15%) or a Martini (around 14% to 18%). It's closer in strength to lighter cocktails such as a Mojito (around 10%).
Is there a particular season or time of year the Wickedy Bu is best enjoyed?
Given its tropical flavors and refreshing nature, the Wickedy Bu is particularly suited for summer or warm weather conditions. Its cool, fruity taste makes it an ideal choice for outdoor gatherings, pool parties, or simply as a refreshing respite from the heat.
