About Sky Blue Ingredients

Shochu: It is a Japanese distilled spirit made from rice, sweet potatoes, and barley. When used as a base for cocktails, it offers a different taste than drinking it as is, and even those who do not like shochu can enjoy it more easily.

Blue Curacao: White curacao colored blue. It is used in a variety of cocktails, including tropical ones.

Tonic water: It is made by adding extracts from citrus peels and sugar content to carbonated water or soda pop, and has both a refreshing and bittersweet taste.

Aromatic bitters: Bitter liqueur made primarily from the bark of the angostura (tangerine tree). When we simply call it Angostura bitters, we are referring to it. Just a few drops can add depth to the flavor.

Lemon: Rich in vitamins. It has many uses, such as sliced and floated, cut and decorated around the edges, and using the peel.

Maraschino cherry: Candied, seedless cherries are called maraschino cherries. The bright red cherries add color to cocktails.
