This is best used for color blending. A quarter ounce in a lime-based drink? Beautiful teal cocktail. A quarter ounce in a grenadine-based drink? Beautiful purple cocktail. Something thick with creme? Beautiful baby blue cocktail. Don't use more than a quarter ounce, though. This stuff does not taste good. Do yourself a favor and buy a better curacao with no food coloring if you want to sip something.
