Ingredients

Here are the simple ingredients to make this Blue Lagoon Mocktail:

Blue Spirulina - Vibrant blue spirulina is a dietary supplement derived from blue-green algae available online or at your local health food store. It's packed with antioxidants, minerals, protein, and vitamins. I used organic luminous blue spirulina to give this mocktail its signature bright blue color without artificial coloring.
Sparkling Lemon Soda for a delicious citrus flavor. You can use lemonade, which will make this mocktail quite a bit sweeter.
Coconut Water - for a hint of the tropics and a touch of sweetness.
Club Soda - for extra fizz. Sparkling water is a great choice, too.
Garnish - Maraschino cherries and lemon wedges for a pop of color, aroma, and extra flavor.
Ice - It's essential to have lots of ice to make this virgin blue lagoon mocktail, especially when making it for a crowd.

A complete ingredient list with exact amounts can be found in the recipe card below.

Substitutions & Variations

Here are some substitutions and variations you can try when making this easy summer drink:

Blue spirulina powder - Instead of blue spirulina powder, you can use Blue Raspberry Syrup or Blue Curaçao Syrup, which make for a sweeter drink. These syrups usually do not contain alcohol like Blue Curaçao liqueur, an orange-flavored liqueur made from the dried peel of the laraha citrus fruit. The blue color in Blue Curaçao liqueur and Blue Curaçao syrup is from blue food coloring; check the ingredient labels.
Coconut water - Use orange juice or lemon juice instead.
Garnish - Instead of lemon wedges, you can use orange wedges. Or add a cocktail umbrella! For extra pizzazz, rim the edge of the glass with cut lemon, followed by sugar.
Herbal - Muddle with mint leaves or basil leaves for an herbal note.
Sparkling lemon soda - Use lemonade, lemon-lime soda, sparkling water, or sparkling water with a splash of fresh lemon juice.
Sweeter - Mix in simple syrup to make it sweeter, or add pineapple juice, orange, or blueberry pomegranate juice to add a fruity flavor. If you like lavender, try my homemade lavender simple syrup!

Recipe FAQs

What is blue spirulina?

Blue spirulina is a natural extract obtained from blue-green algae. Phycocyanin, an antioxidant, gives blue spirulina its signature color and has powerful anti-inflammation effects. It has a mild taste in small amounts.

Can I add alcohol to this recipe?

If you want to make the cocktail version of a Blue Lagoon, you can replace the club soda with one ounce of vodka and the lemon sparkling soda with lemonade. It will still be a delicious and refreshing drink with an extra kick!

Can I make this Blue Lagoon mocktail in advance?

Yes, you can prepare the base mixture of blue spirulina and coconut water up to 24 hours before. Store it in the refrigerator, whisk it before making the mocktail, and add the rest of the ingredients immediately before serving to keep it fizzy and fresh.

What kind of glass do I need to make this blue drink?

Use a hurricane glass, a tulip glass, or a highball glass to make this Blue Lagoon mocktail.
