How to Make Starry Ocean Bliss – Step by Step

1. Layer the Base

Pour ⅛ cup of blue curaçao syrup into the bottom of your tall glass. Add crushed ice halfway up the glass, letting the syrup create an ombre ocean effect.

4. Whip It Real Good

Generously spoon or pipe vanilla whipped cream over the top. It should peek like a fluffy cloud above the waves.

5. Garnish Like You Mean It

Add a pineapple wedge to the rim, sprinkle with blue sugar pearls, and top with a candy star or edible sea star for that sandy-shore finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this ahead of time?

Not the full drink, but you can prep the elements (syrup, cream, whipped topping) in advance and assemble right before serving.

What’s the difference between coconut cream and coconut milk?

Coconut cream is thicker and richer, giving a more indulgent texture — ideal for this dreamy recipe!

Is blue curaçao syrup alcoholic?

Most grocery-store versions are non-alcoholic, made just for drinks and desserts. Want a cocktail twist? Use the liqueur version.
