SPOOKY HALLOWEEN EYEBALL COCKTAIL
DIFFICULTY LEVEL: Easy Peasy
PREP TIME: 20 Minutes TOTAL TIME: 20 Minutes
SERVINGS: 6-7
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 Liter 7 Up, Mountain Dew, or Ginger Ale
- 2 Pints Lime Sherbert or Sorbet
- 1 Package Trolli Sour Bite Crawlers (or any sour gummy worms)
- 1 Package Eyeballs Gummy Candy
- Large Candy Eyeballs
- Mini Candy Eyeballs
- 1 Package White Fondant
- Green Food Coloring or Icing Gel
- Wood Skewers
- Vodka (Optional)
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Stick your creepy gummy candy onto your skewers about halfway down, and then set aside.
- Add just a dab of green food coloring or icing coloring gel to your fondant. Knead the fondant and add more coloring as needed. Once you're satisfied with your color, separate the fondant into separate little balls (count the number of drinks you will have). Then roll out the fondant and cut out a drip shape. Feel free to play around with the shape. They don't have to all be the exact same size, and they can be long or small drips based on your preference. Once you're done, hang each fondant piece over your glasses and press them onto the glass to keep them in place.
- Press the eyeballs randomly onto the fondant. If you find the eyeballs are falling off, you can dab a tiny bit of water where you will add the eyeball and it will stick very easily when you press it on.
- Fill the glasses with 7Up or Mountain Dew, top with lime sherbert, and if you want an alcoholic version, add a quarter cup of vodka. Add the skewers to each cup, and voila, you're done! Serve and enjoy!
