Step 1: Rim the Glass (Optional but Fun)

1. Pour a bit of lemon juice or sour mix onto a small plate.

2. On a second plate, spread out granulated sugar (or blue-colored sugar).

3. Dip the rim of your martini glass into the lemon juice, then into the sugar to coat.

4. Set aside to dry slightly while you prepare your cocktail.

Step 2: Prepare Your Shaker

1. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.

2. Add 1 ½ oz of blue raspberry vodka (or regular vodka + blue raspberry syrup).

3. Pour in ½ oz blue curaçao.

4. Add ½ oz sour mix.

Step 3: Shake It Up

• Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds, until the outside of the shaker feels cold and frosty.

Step 4: Strain and Serve

• Strain the mixture into your prepared martini glass.

Step 5: Add the Fizz (Optional)

• Top with a splash (½ oz) of lemon-lime soda if you’d like a fizzy, refreshing finish.

Step 6: Garnish

• Garnish with a blue raspberry gummy ring on the rim, a skewer of Jolly Ranchers, or even a fun candy stick for a striking presentation.
