Blue Hawaii and Blue Hawaiian Cocktail Recipes:
BLUE HAWAII COCKTAIL
Bartender Harry Yee created the Blue Hawaii cocktail in 1957 while he was working at the Hawaiian Village in Waikiki. A Bols sales representative came to Yee asking for a drink made with the company’s blue curaçao liqueur and the Blue Hawaii is the result of his tinkering. Yee was also known for possibly being the first to add banana to a Daiquiri as well as his extravagant and unique garnishes. Apparently the original was shaken but it was commonly served frozen too. The original also called for sour mix so I opted for a house made sour mix with equal parts of lemon, lime and simple.

BLUE HAWAIIAN COCKTAIL
The Blue Hawaiian is a variation on the Blue Hawaii but I’d argue that it more closely resembles a Pina Colada than a Blue Hawaii. According to Simon Difford, it was PROBABLY created by Don the Beachcomber in Los Angeles. This drink can be served frozen or on the rocks - I prefer to serve it on crushed ice as I’m not a big fan of frozen drinks.
