It is also the name given to another cocktail which is made by combining cider and WKD Blue alcopop.

History

The drink was created at a Hpnotiq launch event by a restaurant bartender at Sean Combs' New York restaurant, Justin's. A Hpnotiq employee noticed many women but few men drinking his company's liquor, because the men considered the blue, fruity drink to be too effeminate. Victor Alvarez, a bartender at the restaurant, mixed Hennessy with Hpnotiq to dilute the fruity flavor, resulting in a green beverage that quickly became a hit.Govinda, Pamela (2004).

An Incredible Hulk or 'Hulk' is often drunk in middlesbrough and consists of a half lager and a blue WKD in a pint glass
