Halloween Drinks for Kids

FAQS

How Do I Add Dry Ice?

• Find a smaller punch bowl that will fit inside the larger decorative bowl.
• Add 2-3 inches of water to the larger bowl and place the smaller bowl inside.
• Pour the punch into the smaller bowl.
• When the party starts use tongs to add chunks of dry ice to the water in the larger bowl. It will immediately start to smoke. Add more as needed.
• Be cautious when handling dry ice. It is extremely cold and can burn your skin.

Accessories to Make Drinks More Festive?

• Halloween-colored straws. Slide a Halloween Peep marshmallow on each straw.
• Use a glow stick to help stir your “potion”. Small glow sticks work great for cups. Larger, fat glow sticks can work to stir the punch bowl.
• Add floaters like monster eyeballs, vampire teeth, gummy worms, or plastic spiders. Make sure they are large and obvious enough that someone doesn’t accidentally swallow one and choke.
• Monster hand. Fill a clear glove with water, fasten it closed, and freeze it. Once frozen, have it floating around in the punch bowl to help keep it cool.
• Garnish drinks with a cherry, wedge of lemon or lime, a twist of orange, blueberries, lychees, cinnamon, cranberries, syringes of grenadine, Pumpkin Pie Spice, Whipped Cream, Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream, or candy corn (even edible glitter)! Rim the glass with colored sugar!

How to Serve Halloween Drink Recipes?

• Clear punch bowls are fun to show off funky colors or floating eyeballs.
• Shaped bowls. Use classics like a bowl shaped like a witch’s cauldron or pumpkin/jack-o-lantern.
• Simple clear plastic cups. Again, clear cups will showcase any spooky additions, such as eyeballs floating in the drink.
• Use drink beakers. You know, the ones a mad scientist would use.
• Fancy cocktail glasses.
• Glass milk containers. These are especially fun if you draw jack-o-lantern or ghost faces on them. (Note: marker can be removed using a magic eraser.)
• Fancy glasses. Like the bowls, you can find some really cool Halloween glasses and goblets at craft stores or online stores.
• Wrap soda with these fun Halloween Soda Pop Labels.

How Can I Make Regular Drinks More Festive?

• Label these fun kid-friendly Halloween drinks with Halloween-ish names. Non alcoholic Mint Julep can be called Goosebumps Punch or a bloody Shirley Temple can be labeled as a Vampire Blood Drink. Any drink with dry ice can be called Hocus Pocus Punch.
