Background and Origins of

Blue Lagoon

The Blue Lagoon cocktail was created in the late 20th century, during the rise of colorful and visually appealing drinks. Its exact origins are somewhat murky, but it is generally believed to have been invented by a bartender named Andy MacElhone at Harry's New York Bar in Paris. MacElhone was the son of the legendary Harry MacElhone, who founded the bar in 1911. The cocktail's name and striking blue hue are inspired by the famous Blue Lagoon, a geothermal spa in Iceland known for its crystal-clear blue waters. The drink quickly gained popularity due to its refreshing taste and visually stunning appearance, making it a favorite among partygoers and vacationers alike.
