Pina Ghouladas

A delightfuly Ghoulish drink!

• Garnish your glass or goblet with Vampire Blood.

To make Vampire Blood, color clear Corn Syrup with red food coloring.  Paste food coloring works best because it won’t add any liquid to the syrup.  But regular food coloring works, too.

Pour the Vampire Blood onto a saucer or shallow container and spin the rim of your glass or goblet in the blood.  When you turn the glass upright again, the “blood” will ooze down the sides.

Add A Frozen Hand to the mix!

For that special touch, add a frozen hand to the punch bowl and really surprise the kids!

Fill an unpowdered or washed, vinyl surgical glove with water, colored water or koolaid and freeze.  Just before serving, peel off the glove and place the “Frozen Hand” in the punch bowl!

Tips:

• Do not overfill the glove because the water expands as it freezes
• Run a thin wooden skewer from one side of the glove to the other, just below the opening, to act as a hanger.  Hang the glove over a pitcher to fill and place pitcher with glove into freezer to freeze.
