Drunk Witch Cocktail
The Drunk Witch Cocktail is a spooky Halloween drink made with vodka, Blue Curacao, grenadine, and Sprite. With its bold layered colors and sweet, fizzy flavor, it’s the perfect witch-themed cocktail for festive parties.
Equipment
- Cocktail shaker (optional, for mixing)
- Measuring jigger or shot glass
- Spoon (for layering)
- Serving glass
Ingredients
For the Drink:
- 2 ounces vodka
- 2 ounces Blue Curacao
- 2 ounces grenadine
- Sprite or 7-Up to top
- Ice cubes
For the Rim:
- Purple frosting a tube works best
- Green sanding sugar orange or black sanding sugar also works
Instructions
Step 1: Prep the Glass Rim
- Squeeze a thin line of purple frosting around the outer rim of your glass. Roll the rim gently in green sanding sugar (or orange/black if you’re feeling festive). Set aside.
Step 2: Fill Glass with Ice
- Pack your glass full of ice. This keeps everything cold and slows down the mixing so the layers stay pretty.
Step 3: Add Vodka + Blue Curacao
- Pour 2 oz vodka and 2 oz blue curacao right over the ice. Give it one very gentle stir — just enough to combine, not enough to muddy the color.
Step 4: Slowly Pour in Grenadine
- Tilt the glass slightly and pour the grenadine down the inside wall so it sinks to the bottom. This gives you that magical gradient — purple on top, red at the base.
Step 5: Top with Sprite
- Fill the rest of the glass with Sprite or 7-Up. Don’t stir! Let the soda fizz and mingle naturally as you sip.
Step 6: Sip Like a Witch Who Just Cast a Spell
- Sip with a straw or stir gently if you want the colors to blend into a spooky purple. The flavors blend as you go — sweet, tart, fizzy, strong. Perfect.
Notes
- This drink is meant to be fun, colorful, and easy. Don’t stress perfection. Even if the layers mix, it still tastes great.
- The rim is optional but highly recommended for full witchy effect.
- Always drink responsibly — even witches know their limits.
