W<\/span>hat’s the national drink of Cura\u00e7ao? What’s the most popular? What’s the drink that’s consumed the most? Which drink best represents the island? Let’s find out together! Here are our experiences so far:<\/p>\n Blue Curacao represents the island worldwide like no other drink. Although the orange liqueur is mixed with blue food coloring, the Caribbean Sea on many beaches<\/a>, such as the Grote Knip<\/a>, has exactly the same color (see cover collage).<\/p>\n Blue Curacao is probably even more well-known than the island itself. At Relaxed Curacao, we\u2019re doing our part to make sure it doesn’t stay that way.<\/p>\n Blue Curacao is often used in cocktails like the Swimming Pool or the Blue Lagoon. In my opinion, it’s better to mix it. I’ve tried a red Curacao liqueur. Why red? Just read our separate article on Blue Curacao<\/a>. Anyway, Taco from the Cactus Caf\u00e9 served it to me neat in a tumbler. It was a bit like drinking whiskey or cognac, because I could feel the high-proof power from the very first sip.<\/p>\n The people of Curacao are proud that the only true, original Blue Curacao comes from their homeland. Aldrich Hermelijn<\/a>, who is a child of the island, recommends it as a souvenir<\/a>. He thinks that everyone who visits Curacao should take one with them so they can say:<\/p>\n “Hey, this kind of liqueur is available everywhere, but I have the original.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\nCandidate number 1 Blue Curacao<\/h3>\n
