Hello!
I wanted to share this Bloody Guts Punch with you today because it is almost Halloween! Well, but don’t worry, because of course it isn’t really bloody punch!! But it does kind of look like it, don’t you think?!
I have been decorating like crazy to get ready for Halloween and my mom helped me make this delicious punch so that we would have energy to keep decorating.
I think my favorite part is the hand ice cube. Can you believe you can make that with just a rubber glove?! It’s so cool!
I thought that this would be a good special drink for kids on Halloween. We did add beet sugar to this to make it a little more sweet, but you could do it without and it is still sweet enough if you don’t want more sugar. Or if your mom doesn’t want you to have more sugar!
Also, if you see this I get to show how to make this punch on the TV show New Day Northwest tomorrow- please watch!
I am also going to show cool kids Halloween stuff too. Ok- Have fun with this drink!!
XO, Pia
This is how you make this punch:
*The day before you want to make this punch, fill a latex glove with water, tie the end like you would a balloon and then put it in the freezer.
The day that you want to make the punch:
(Have a grown up help you with this!)
In a pan over medium heat combine the blackberries, sugar and water. When the berries have melted and cooked a little but (about 3-5 minutes), use a fork to smash them up.
Let them cool and then dump them into the bottom of a punch bowl.
Add the pomegranate juice and the apple cider.
Pull the glove off of the ice hand and put that in the punch as the ice cube to keep it cold. Ladle the punch into glasses and drink cold.
