If tart, tropical beverages are your thing, this is the perfect drink for you. A homemade cranberry syrup cuts the sweetness—and makes it look like Dracula just took a sip—in this icy blend of orange, pineapple, and lime juices. Kids and adults alike will enjoy this spooky mocktail as-is, but you can also add some alcohol to make it a Hard Zombie cocktail.
Tips for Making the Frozen Halloween Mocktail
Keep these helpful tips in mind when blending up the Cranberry Zombie beverage at home.
- The homemade cranberry sauce will thicken to the blood-red drizzling consistency once cooled. Allow at least 15 minutes for it to cool in the fridge. You can also make this up to one week in advance, keeping it chilled in an airtight container.
- Use a high-powered blender and blend for at least 30 seconds to get the frozen beverage to the perfect smooth consistency.
- If you want a boozy version, we recommend adding some white rum to the blender with the juice.
