In this fun and easy to read article, we’ll walk you through the step-by-step process of making this colorful and impressive drink.

To start off, you’ll need to gather your ingredients. You’ll need 1.5 ounces of vodka, 1 ounce of blue curaçao, 1 ounce of grenadine, 2 ounces of cranberry juice, and a slice of lemon for garnish. You’ll also need some ice and a shaker to mix up your cocktail.

First, fill a shaker with ice and pour in your vodka, blue curaçao, grenadine, and cranberry juice. Put the lid on the shaker and give it a good shake to mix all the ingredients together and to chill the cocktail. This is where the fun really begins – shake, shake, and shake some more! If you’re feeling extra adventurous, you can even add a little dance move or two while you’re shaking up your purple rain cocktail.

Once your cocktail is well mixed and chilled, it’s time to strain it into a glass. If you want to really impress your guests, use a martini glass or a fancy cocktail glass for serving. Carefully strain the cocktail from the shaker into the glass, taking care not to spill any of that delicious purple goodness.

To really make your purple rain cocktail stand out, it’s the perfect time to add your slice of lemon for a beautiful garnish. The bright yellow of the lemon against the deep purple of the cocktail creates a stunning visual contrast that will be sure to impress anyone who sees it. For an added touch, run the lemon slice around the rim of the glass to add a little extra pop of flavor.

And that’s it – you’ve just made your very own purple rain cocktail! It’s as easy as that. Now all that’s left to do is sit back, relax, and enjoy your creation.
