Cool Blue is the right description for the color of this martini. It was very beautiful and tasted great too. Tasted like a classic martini with a hint of citrus that did not overpower. Very crisp and alive. Thanks for sure.

I am not really a martini girl, but this was really not bad at all, the curacao and drop of lemon gave this very tempting color and mellowed down the usual harshnes of traditional martini. This could grow on me.

My husband is in love with this drink!! The only change we make is that we do not include lemon, and instead we garnish the glasses with sugar. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe!

I love this drink. It has a true martini flavor with a calming cool blue color. My husband and I kicked back and enjoyed a beautiful sunset while sipping on these martinis. Thanks for a memorable evening.
