Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons Blue curaçao syrup (non-alcoholic)
• 2 tablespoons Freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Simple syrup
• 1.5 cups Sparkling water or club soda
• 1 cup Ice cubes
• 1 stick Black licorice (optional, for garnish)
• 1 wedge Lime wedge (optional, for garnish)
• 1 drop Red gel food coloring (optional, for dramatic effect)

Directions

Step 1

Fill a tall glass with 1 cup of ice cubes to keep your drink chilled and refreshing.

Step 2

In a separate small mixing bowl or liquid measuring cup, combine the blue curaçao syrup, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and simple syrup. Stir well until fully blended.

Step 3

Pour the blue mixture over the ice in your tall glass, creating the initial vibrant base of your mocktail.

Step 4

Slowly pour the sparkling water or club soda over the blue mixture, allowing it to combine gently and retain its bright color.

Step 5

If desired, use a toothpick to drop 1 drop of red gel food coloring into the drink. Watch as it swirls into spooky, blood-like streaks without fully mixing, creating a dramatic effect.

Step 6

Garnish the drink with a black licorice stick for a creepy touch or a lime wedge to add extra citrus flair.

Step 7

Serve immediately with a fun straw and enjoy your spooky 'blue blood' creation!
