A Deep Dive into Mermaid Cocktail Recipes

Let’s get wet: Mermaids are trending, we’re here for it, and we have three mermaid cocktail recipes for our fellow aqua enthusiasts. No blue mermaid cocktail recipes here, and no mermaid mule drink recipes either – these are all new, all from the creative menu team at Ladies of Libation. Dive in and get to it!

Recipe: The Siren Song inspired by the lethal sirens from Pirates of The Caribbean (On Stranger Tides)

It’s pink. It’s killer. It’s a mermaid’s delight.

• 1.5 oz of Sweet Beat Vodka
• 1.5 oz Dolin Blanc Vermouth
• .5 oz Royal Combier
• 1 oz cranberry juice
• 1 oz lime juice
• 1 oz simple syrup

In a cocktail shaker, combine 1.5 oz of Sweet Beat Vodka, 1.5 oz Dolin Blanc Vermouth, .5 oz Royal Combier, 1 oz cranberry juice, 1 oz lime juice and 1 oz simple syrup. Fill your shaker with ice and shake harder and longer than you think is necessary. Strain and pour into your favorite martini glass.

Recipe: Mermaids Smoke Seaweed inspired by the lazy and ornery mermaids depicted in Disney’s original Peter Pan.

No blue Mermaid drinks for us; We think Mermaids prefer the natural green essence derived from seaweed.

• 1.5 oz Ocho Verde Cannabis Spirit from 8th Wonder
• 1 oz simple syrup
• 1 oz fresh-squeezed lime juice

Combine in a shaker all ingredients and shake vigorously with ice. Then, strain into your favorite glass with a large ice cube. We garnished our version with a green glitter pod, but an simpler alternative would be a thyme sprig and an orange wheel, an orchid or your favorite edible.

Recipe: Colada Del Mar inspired from the film Zoolander

This recipe is inspired by the classic cocktail, the Piña Colada, but with a hint of Blue Steel.

In a shaker combine 1.5 oz coconut rum, .5 oz fruitful mixology coconut liqueur, 1 oz Re’Al coconut creme, .5 oz of coconut syrup, 1.5 oz of pineapple juice and 1 oz fresh-squeezed lime juice. Top your shaker with ice and work the shaker like it’s a fashion week shake-off. Next, pour into your favorite glass and top with a floater of dark rum. Seeking a garnish? You can’t go wrong with a pineapple wedge.
