You’ve seen it in the movies and heard about it from your friends, but have you ever tried a Blue Lagoon cocktail? This famous drink has been around since 1980 when the movie of the same name was released.


Andy MacElhone is the creator of this popular drink during his time as a bartender at Harry's New York Bar in Paris. Many stories surround how he came up with this refreshing beverage that gets its color from blue curaçao and lemonade.
