Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fruit punch juice chilled
  • 1 liter chilled lemon-lime soda for bubbling effect
  • 2 drops red food coloring add slowly to reach desired intensity
  • 8 g green olives or black grapes used for creepy eyes garnish

Equipment

  • Large pitcher
  • Spoon or stirrer
  • Drinking glasses

Method
 

  1. Pour the fruit punch juice into a large pitcher and place it in the refrigerator to keep it chilled.
  2. Gradually add a few drops of red food coloring into the punch, stirring gently to incorporate while observing the deep crimson color developing.
  3. Just before serving, pour the chilled lemon-lime soda into the pitcher, allowing it to bubble and fizz as it mixes with the colored fruit punch.
  4. Stir the mixture gently to combine everything, watching the carbonation create a bubbling, frothy surface reminiscent of bubbling potions.
  5. Prepare creepy eyes by cutting small slits in the olives or grapes to resemble pupils, then set them aside.
  6. Pour the punch into individual glasses, then carefully place a pair of creepy eyes on the surface of each drink for a spooky effect.
  7. Serve immediately, allowing the bubbling and bright red color to make a dramatic, festive presentation perfect for Halloween parties.

Notes

Keep the soda chilled until the moment of serving to maintain the fizz. Add the food coloring gradually to avoid over-darkening the punch. Use olives or grapes for the creepy eyes garnish for best effect.
