Blood Sucker Cocktail
This vampire-friendly cocktail uses strawberry or raspberry puree to add streams of "blood" down the sides of the glass.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 oz. Bacardi "0"
1/2 oz. cointreau
2 oz. pineapple juice
1 Tbs. strawberry or raspberry puree
Preparation:
In a shaker with ice pour rum, cointreau and juice. Shake and pour into a rocks glass. Dip the end of a drinking straw into the puree, hold the tip of your finger over the other end and use the straw to squirt puree into the bottom half-inch of the drink, where it will sink in red blobs. Do not stir.
