This eye-catching Halloween punch features a blend of fruit punch, lemonade, grape juice, and cranberry juice, tinted jet-black with food coloring. Edible glitter adds a magical shimmer, while frozen ice hands made from water-filled gloves create a chilling centerpiece. Serve in individual glasses for a frightfully festive drink.

Ingredients

3-4 cups water

1 gallon fruit punch (16 cups/128 ounces, chilled)

1/2 gallon lemonade (8 cups/64 ounces, chilled)

1/2 gallon grape juice (8 cups/64 ounces, chilled)

1 cup cranberry juice (8 ounces)

10 drops black food coloring (more or less until you achieve the color you want)

1 tablespoon edible cocktail glitter (optional)

Directions

Fill two latex or plastic gloves with water, secure the ends with a knot. Place them flat on a baking sheet and put in the freezer. Allow to freeze solid, ideally overnight or a minimum of 8 hours.

Combine all the juices (fruit punch, lemonade, grape juice, cranberry juice) in a large punch bowl. Stir well.

Gradually add black food coloring, just a few drops at a time, mixing until you achieve your desired shade of darkness.

If you have edible glitter, mix it in. Then carefully peel the frozen gloves off the ice hands and drop them into the punch for a creepy effect.

Serve by ladling the punch into individual glasses.
