A vampire twist on a classic drink, this Dracula’s Kiss is the spooky version of a cherry coke. Serve it with lots of ice and two “puncture marks” (cherries).
‣ 1 part black cherry vodka ‣ 1/2 part grenadine ‣ 5 part Coke ‣ maraschino cherries with stems, for garnish
1
Fill a tall glass with ice, then pour in the black cherry vodka.
2
Next, pour in the grenadine.
3
Going slowly, pour in the Coke. The goal is to pour slow enough that the drink mixes a little but that most of the grenadine still sinks to the bottom. This will give the drink a red ombre look and go with the “Dracula” theme.
4
Garnish drink with two cherries (like two “puncture marks” from Dracula!) and serve it with a stirring straw. The idea is to serve this drink “unmixed” for the cool ombre look, but give the drinker the option to mix if they wish.
