Helpful tips
- I almost always say use premium liquor and truthfully, I always do when I’m making just a few cocktails, but in this cocktail, a premium vodka isn’t needed – just desired.
- Use martini glasses as this shows off the cocktail to its best advantage.
- This cocktail doesn’t need a garnish but feel free to add whatever you like that makes it festive.
- Some people add dry ice but I don’t like to fool around with it. You should not ingest dry ice, nor breath in the gases. But if you do add some, make sure to use gloves to protect your hands and tongs. Also let all the ‘smoke’ disperse before consuming.
- I love the blue of this cocktail, but if you prefer a more purple witches brew, double the grenadine.
