Black Lagoon Cocktail Recipe 425

Steps:

• Combine 6 ounces each coconut rum and blue curacao, 3 ounces lemon juice and 2 tablespoons superfine sugar in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake until very cold, then strain into 6 short glasses filled with ice. Garnish each with a maraschino cherry, pineapple wedge, orange slice and a drink umbrella.

Steps:

• To Make Licorice Ice Cubes: Bring the water and anise seed to a boil in a saucepan. Remove from heat; let cool 30 minutes. Strain through a fine sieve (discard solids), then stir in food coloring. Pour into ice cube trays (preferably square), and freeze. To Make Cocktail: Combine vodka, syrup, and juice in a cocktail shaker, stir to combine. Add seltzer, and divide between two glasses filled with licorice ice cubes. Garnish with licorice stick. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Put the ice cubes in a large jug. Pour over the curaçao, vodka, fruit juices and 1 tsp syrup from the cherries. Stir until the outside of the glass feels cold.
• Half-fill four hurricane glasses with crushed ice, then strain in the cocktail.
• Top up the glasses with the soda water and gently stir, then garnish with the maraschino cherries.
