Blue Curacao

Zip lock freezer bags

 

Method:

Add half bottle of Laughing Glass to bag, add enough blue curacao for your desired color, close bag with care!, freeze at least 2 hours, repeat!

Amazing, refreshing and mouth watering! The key here is a little product we found called Little Waisted glitter sugars and cocktail salts. We have added their lime flavored cocktail salt to these watermelon slices, and we are obsessed with their other fun, sparkly products!

Slice melon, pour LGC original margarita onto pieces, keep chilled in fridge, dip into fancy salt or sugar, enjoy.
