It was very, very pale blue and very, very delicious. I had it at a restaurant in DC and haven't found a recipe that approximates what the menu said was in the drink, but I know it had St. Germain in it. Obviously in addition to blue curacao. Yummy - I'll have to try some other blue drinks, but probably in my house!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-75692515722420966362012-07-05T03:08:48.564-04:002012-07-05T03:08:48.564-04:00oh this is great!
