Blue Margaritas Pitcher Recipe | Mermaid Margaritas

Summer is the perfect theme for any party, and you don’t have to do much. The season does most of the heavy lifting. You can add some more theming with things like beach balls, water themes, and bright summer colors.

But another easy theme for summer parties is mermaids. You can host a summer party that has a beach theme and then sprinkle mermaids throughout the event. These margaritas can serve as mermaid margaritas as well.

There was a time when mermaids were all the rage, and they still can be. We just need a reason to throw a summer party like a birthday, anniversary, holiday, or any day that ends in y. 

Mermaid Margarita Pitcher Ingredients

• 2 Cups Tequila | Tequila is obviously very important for this summer cocktail. You can use any tequila you like for this one as well. Of course, the better the Tequila, the better the cocktail. But you may want to save the good stuff for a different time.
• 1.5 Cups Blue Curacao | Blue Curacao is a liqueur that uses the peel of the laraha citrus fruit found on the island of Curaçao. The liqueur gets its blue color from food coloring. But that blue, sweet flavor is going to tie this margarita together.
• 1 Cup Simple Syrup | Simple syrup is a common ingredient in cocktails. It adds sweetness to the drink without watering it down. You will not want to skip this ingredient as you will miss it when you take a sip.
• 1.5-2 Cups Lemonade | This ingredient is on a scale because it all comes down to preference. You can add more to get a sweeter flavor or not as much to make room for more alcohol. The choice is yours.
• 1 Can Pineapple Hard Seltzer | The seltzer will give the margaritas a fresher taste. But the pineapple also adds more flavor to the mix that combines nicely with the lemonade and laraha fruits.
• 2 Lemons | These lemons will need to be cut into slices. You can skewer these with pineapple and cherries for a unique look.
• Salt and Sugar | You will be able to rim the glasses with salt and sugar as well. This is usually done to help make the taste even better and give the glass a fun look. Of course, you can’t add this to the rim of the pitcher, so this would be for glasses only.

How to Make Blue Margaritas Pitchers

Mix the salt and sugar together on a small plate and set aside. 

In your pitcher, combine the Tequila, pineapple hard seltzer, lemonade, and simple syrup. Stir to combine.

Add the blue curacao and stir. If you don’t get your desired color, add more. 

Prepare the glasses by rubbing a lemon slice along the rim of each glass. Set the glass rim into the salt/sugar mixture to coat it.

Skewer the pineapple, cherries, and lemon onto the cocktail stirs.

Fill each glass with margarita from the pitcher and add your skewer garnish to the glass.

If you want to cut the sweetness, leave 1 inch of room after pouring and top your margarita with club soda. Be sure to stir lightly after.

Enjoy!
