The Electric Lemonade is one of the most visually striking cocktails out there and it tastes delicious! If you are looking for a subtle, refreshing cocktail to enjoy or serve your guests, this is the one.
This is the perfect drink for taking a vacation from life in your backyard! Who needs a pool when you have a bit of sunshine and a bright blue refreshing cocktail in the other?! Equally tangy and sweet, this is the perfect drink for the warm summer months, but of course – like any other of our favorite cocktails – it’s pretty much a seasonal all-rounder!
This tropical mix of citron vodka, blue curacao, sour mix and lemon-lime makes this cocktail literally look like the ocean. It’s also perfect for entertaining. I recently whipped one up for a weekend BBQ with guests and it was a massive hit!

Hi there DJ.
First, I’m not sure where you get the lack of measurements from given that they are clearly in the recipe card.
Second, I’ve gone through and corrected any mistypes as the correct ingredients should state sour mix and not lemonade.

As a retired bartender, I couldn’t help but notice a couple of glaring omissions/errors in this particular recipe for “Electric Lemonade”:
1) You failed to indicate ANY measurements for the ingredients. This can be problematic where flavor is concerned.
2) Early in the recipe, you indicate sour mix as an ingredient, then change it to lemonade w/o any explanation. While they do share certain similarities, they’re NOT the same thing. Lemonade is great, but I would recommend a top shelf sour mix if I wanted to make a “professional” impression on my guests. ?
