The Blue Hawaii was invented in 1957 by Harry K. Yee, then head bartender of the Hilton Hawaiian Village, because nobody knew what to do with blue liqueur and it looked like Hawaii's ocean. I was inspired to post this because I was reading an article that discussed the "authentic blue Hawaii" with gin, coconut liqueur and half and half? Why not get it from the originator? So here we are......................Yee warned. "The Blue Hawaii has to have vodka to be correct. And Bols curacao, because the others I don't care for."
