Happy Hour Thursday: Captain Nemo

Yep, we really did pick this week's cocktail for more than just the name. Okay, so maybe it had something to do with it.

Ingredients
1 3/4 ounces Cointreau
3/4 ounce blue curacao
1 ounce sweet-and-sour mix
Dash of orange juice
Ice cubes

Directions
Place all the ingredients in a shaker and shake well. Strain the drink into a glass with a prepared sugared rim and serve.

How to Make the Perfect Sugared Rim
Many drinks taste great with sugar around the rim of the glass. You can use regular sugar, colored sugar, sweetened chocolate powder, or crushed candy, such as raspberry or lemon drops. Rub a slice of lime around the rim of a glass and dip it in the sugar. Shake it gently to get rid of any excess sugar.
