Notes
Pro Tips
- For an extra spooky presentation, consider adding a plastic vampire fang as a garnish or a few drops of red food coloring to the grenadine for a more intense "blood" effect.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less grenadine to suit your taste.
- For a non-alcoholic version, replace the spiced rum with ginger ale or a spiced soda.
