    PREPARE THE COCKTAIL

    In a cocktail shaker, fill with about a ½ cup to 1 cup of ice. Next, pour in the passionfruit vodka, blueberry simple syrup and pineapple juice.

    Shake vigorously for 10-15 seconds making certain the ingredients are well combined. 

    Finally, using a strainer, pour the halloween cocktail evenly into the two martini (or any cocktail) glasses. With a lemon wedge, squeeze about one teaspoon of lemon juice on top of the cocktail for finishing flavor.

    If serving the cocktails with dry ice, carefully add two small pieces of dry ice to each glass for an extra spooky effect. Safely remove the dry ice when ready to consume or wait until dry ice evaporates to enjoy!

    TIPS AND TRICKS FOR BEST RESULTS

    • This cocktail is best served immediately, prepare this when you are ready to serve. You can certainly prepare the blueberry simple syrup ahead of time and store in the refrigerator. 
    • If you do not want to make the homemade blueberry simple syrup, purchase blueberry juice that's sold in most grocery stores.
    • There are several great options to purchase passionfruit vodka. You can try Absolute, New Amsterdam or Smirnoff.
    • Double, triple or quadruple this recipe and serve it right out of a pitcher. Your guests will love this cocktail either way! 
    • If you can't find dry-ice, try lighting dried rosemary for another form of a smokey effect.

    FAQ

    1. What is dry ice? Dry ice is solid form of carbon dioxide (or CO2). Carbon dioxide is solidified into hard, white blocks with an extremely low surface temperature. Typically used to cool food and materials or for smokey effects like this cocktail!
    2. Is dry ice dangerous? Yes, dry ice should be handled with freezer safe gloves and/or tongs, do not touch dry ice directly.
    3. Can I consume dry ice? You should never consume dry ice. Simply remove it from the cocktail before consumption or wait until the dry ice complete dissolves, this means the CO2 has evaporated.
    4. Are there alternatives for dry ice? Yes, Simply add a fresh rosemary stick and light it with a match, this is a great way to add smokey flare without handling dry ice.
