The Story
The Blue Kamikaze is the equal-parts Kamikaze — vodka, orange liqueur, and lime — with blue curaçao standing in for the usual triple sec. Where the original was a 1970s bar staple often thrown back as a shot, the blue version reads as its more composed sibling: the same tart, clean formula, served up in a coupe and glowing a deep electric blue.
