Notes

Tips

  • Slowly pour the blue curaçao and grenadine to create a colorful, layered, swirling effect.
  • Serve the cocktail straight away while the ice is fresh and the colors are at their most striking.
  • Have fun with the garnishes! Gummy eyeballs, maraschino cherries, and citrus slices all add to the creepy potion look.
 

Substitutions

  • The original recipe uses Empress 1908 Gin. Using a different gin may change the distinctive purple color of the finished cocktail.
  • Use your favorite spooky gummy candy if gummy eyeballs aren't available.
