Ingredients

Showing the cocktail. Switch to Mocktail for the alcohol-free version.

1 shot (1½ oz) blue liqueur
1 shot (1½ oz) pineapple juice
1 shot (1½ oz) blanco tequila
a few drops blue food colouring
salt, for the rim (optional)
2–3 Richberry halves

How to Make It

Blend
Put the blue liqueur, pineapple juice, tequila and a few drops of food colouring in a blender and blend until smooth. Add more colouring a drop at a time until it's as blue as you like.
Serve
Wet the rim of a chilled glass and dip it in salt, if you like, then pour in the drink.
Add the Richberry twist
Just before your first sip, chew 2–3 Richberry halves gently and let them linger for about 30 seconds. Discard any pit, then taste how the sour notes turn sweet.

Richberry changes the taste, not the drink: a cocktail may taste softer, but it is just as strong. Please enjoy it responsibly.
