James’ Candy Cane Mocktail Recipe

Last year James decided to make a mocktail for our Billy Idol Day feast!

You need:

• Lemonade
• Candy canes
• Ice
• Raspberry/Cranberry grenadine
• Bitters (optional)

To make the grenadine, boil a large bottle of raspberry/cranberry on the stove with 1 cup of sugar until it was reduced by half.

Of course you need fancy glasses to have this in! Start by adding in a few ice cubes.

Fill the glass 80% with lemonade.

Gently pour in the grenadine, it’s important to pour very slowly and to sort of drip it down the side of the glass otherwise you won’t get the cool gradient effect.

Gradient! At this point you can also add a few drops of bitters or actual alcohol if you are thusly inclined.

Lastly, add in a candy cane as a stirrer.

After a few minutes, the candy cane will melt into the drink and make it even more delicious!

Yum yum yum!

Let me know if you guys try this out this year!
