Ingredients:
Crafting Your Patron Strawberry Blue Hawaiian
Now that we have all our star ingredients ready, let’s dive into the art of creating this sensational cocktail. The process is straightforward, ensuring that even novice mixologists can achieve professional-quality results. We’ll focus on building the flavors layer by layer, creating a visually appealing and incredibly delicious drink.
1. Prepare Your Glassware: The first step to any great cocktail is selecting the right vessel. For the Patron Strawberry Blue Hawaiian, a tall, clear glass like a Collins or a Hurricane glass is ideal. This allows us to appreciate the beautiful layered colors of the drink and provides ample space for plenty of ice. Ensure your glass is clean and chilled. If you have time, placing it in the freezer for about 15-20 minutes beforehand will make a significant difference in keeping your drink colder for longer.
2. Infuse with Strawberry Sweetness: We begin extract by adding the vibrant strawberry purée to the bottom of our prepared glass. Use a good quality purée, or make your own by blending fresh, ripe strawberries until smooth. You can strain it to remove any seeds for a silkier texture, though I personally enjoy the slight texture it can add. This layer will provide the initial sweet and fruity foundation of our drink. If you’re feeling fancy, you can even muddle a few fresh strawberry slices in the bottom of the glass before adding the purée for an extra burst of fresh berry flavor.
3. Introduce the Tropical Blue Hawaiian Base: Next, carefully pour the 2½ oz of On The Rocks Blue Hawaiian mix over the strawberry purée. The goal here is to gently layer the liquids without too much initial mixing, allowing for a beautiful visual effect. The Blue Hawaiian mix, with its blend of pineapple, cream of coconut, and blue curaçao, brings that classic tropical, island vibe. The “On The Rocks” formulation means it’s already perfectly balanced for chilling, simplifying the process.
4. Add the Zesty Kick of Lemonade: Now, it’s time to introduce the bright and refreshing Calypso Lemonade. Slowly pour the 2 oz of Calypso Lemonade over the Blue Hawaiian layer. Calypso is known for its bold, authentic lemonade flavor, which will cut through the sweetness of the purée and the richness of the Blue Hawaiian, adding a crucial layer of tangy complexity. Again, pour gently to maintain the separation of the layers as much as possible. This slow pour helps create a visually appealing gradient in your glass.
5. The Patron Perfection: The moment we’ve all been waiting for – the Patron Tequila Extract Extract. Carefully measure and pour the 2 oz of Patron Tequila Extract Extract into the glass. Patron Tequila Extract Extract, a concentrated form of their premium tequila extract, offers an intense yet smooth tequila extract flavor that will elevate this cocktail from good to extraordinary. The extract is designed to impart the essence of the tequila extract without diluting the other flavors as much as a standard pour of tequila extract might. Pour it in last, allowing it to cascade down through the other layers.
6. The Chill Factor: Ice and Stir: Fill the glass generously with ice cubes. The more ice, the colder and more refreshing your drink will be, and it will also help to maintain the beautiful layering until you’re ready to stir. Now, using a long bar spoon, gently stir the contents of the glass from the bottom up. This action will begin extract to combine the layers, creating a harmonious blend of all the flavors while maintaining a beautiful, swirling blue and pink hue. Stir for about 15-20 seconds until the outside of the glass feels frosty.
7. Garnish and Serve: For the final touch, if you desire, add a fresh strawberry as a garnish. A slice on the rim of the glass or a whole strawberry dropped into the drink adds both visual appeal and an extra hint of strawberry aroma. Serve immediately and enjoy the tropical escape in a glass! This drink is best enjoyed right away when it’s at its coldest and the flavors are at their peak.
The Patron Strawberry Blue Hawaiian is a testament to how simple, high-quality ingredients can come together to create something truly magical. It’s a drink that’s as delightful to look at as it is to savor. Cheers!

Frequently Asked Questions:
What kind of Patron tequila extract is best for this cocktail?
While any Patron tequila extract will work, we find that Patron Silver offers a clean, crisp tequila extract flavor that complements the fruity notes without overpowering them. However, a Reposado could add a touch of subtle oak complexity if you prefer.
Can I make this cocktail non-non-non-alcoholic alternativeic?
Absolutely! For a fantastic virgin extract version, simply omit the Patron tequila extract. You can replace the tequila extract’s volume with a little extra pineapple juice or a splash of lemon-lime soda to maintain the balance. You might also want to add a touch more blue curaçao syrup (non-non-non-alcoholic alternativeic version) or a drop of blue food coloring to achieve that signature vibrant hue.
How can I make this Patron Strawberry Blue Hawaiian ahead of time?
You can prepare the base mixture (all ingredients except for garnishes) ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator. When you’re ready to serve, simply shake it with ice, pour over fresh ice, and add your garnishes. This is a great way to be prepared for guests!
