Servings: 1
- 2 oz vodka
- 3 oz cranberry juice
- 1 oz blue curaçao
- 0.5 oz corn syrup for rimming
- Black lava salt for rimming
To prepare the glass, pour corn syrup onto a small plate. Dip the rim of the glass in the corn syrup, ensuring the rim is fully coated.
On a separate plate, spread black lava salt. Dip the syrup-coated rim into the salt, pressing gently to adhere the salt evenly around the glass.
Fill the glass with crushed ice.
In a cocktail shaker, combine the cranberry juice, blue curaçao, and vodka with ice.
Shake well until chilled, then strain the mixture into the prepared glass over the crushed ice.
Serve immediately and enjoy the spooky fun!
Pro Tips
- For a more dramatic presentation, drip the corn syrup down the sides of the glass for a "dripping blood" effect before adding the black lava salt.
- If black lava salt is unavailable, black sanding sugar can be used as a festive alternative.
- Chill the glass before rimming for an extra frosty effect.
