Chef's Notes

 
Ingredient notes & substitutions


Blue food coloring can be skipped entirely or switched for another color. It can also be swapped for blue curacao syrup, which makes it a bit sweeter. Use 1 teaspoon of the syrup for one mocktail.

Sprite can be switched for any lemon/lime soda

 

Tips & tricks

Use a potato peeler to peel the rind of the lemon (you can also use a small knife)
A muddler is great to have, but the handle of a wooden spoon works almost as well
Make it less bitter by using less lemon rind or skipping it entirely
Make it less sour by adding less lemon juice
Change the color to match the theme of your party

 
Making it ahead of time? Just muddle the lemon and lemon rind and mix in the blue food coloring, and then add the ice and sprite just before serving.
