Electric Lemonade
ClassicSpiked blue lemonade, built for a hot afternoon.
Sweet-tart and fizzy. Fresh lemon and simple syrup make a proper lemonade, lifted by clean vodka and the orange sweetness of blue curaçao, then lengthened with soda. Long, easy, and unapologetically electric blue.

The Story
Electric Lemonade is a product of the American nightclub era — a tall, sweet-tart cooler that treats vodka and blue curaçao as a way to turn ordinary lemonade a glowing neon blue. It has no single inventor and dozens of house variations, but the idea is always the same: fresh lemon, a little sugar, and enough colour to be seen across a dark room.
