To make an Octopus's Garden, start by filling a cocktail shaker with ice. Add 2 ounces of vodka, 1 ounce of blue curacao, and 1 ounce of coconut rum. Squeeze in the juice of one lime and add a dash of simple syrup. Shake well to combine all the ingredients.
Next, strain the mixture into a chilled glass. To create the visual effect of an underwater garden, you can add a few drops of blue food coloring to the bottom of the glass. Carefully pour the cocktail into the glass, allowing the blue coloring to slowly rise and mix with the rest of the drink.
For an extra touch of whimsy, garnish your Octopus's Garden with a small plastic octopus or other sea-themed decoration. Serve the cocktail with a straw and enjoy!
