Applebees Dracula Juice Recipe
This Applebees Dracula Juice Recipe is a total fan favorite. It is bright, fruity, and looks very cool in a glass.
Ingredients
- 1.5 ounces of high-quality silver or white rum.
- 1 ounce of sweet black cherry flavored syrup.
- 2 ounces of tart and fresh lemonade.
- 1/2 ounce of red grenadine for extra deep color.
- 1/2 ounce of fresh squeezed lime juice today.
- 1 cup of crushed or cubed clear ice.
- Fresh cherries or gummy teeth for a garnish.
Instructions
Prep Your Glass
- Fill your tall glass with fresh ice cubes first. This keeps the drink very cold while you mix.
Add the Rum
- Pour the white rum into your cocktail shaker now. Use a good brand for a very smooth taste.
Add the Flavors
- Pour the lemonade and the lime juice into the shaker. These add a nice sour kick to the drink.
Color the Mix
- Add the black cherry syrup and the red grenadine. This creates the famous deep "Dracula" red color.
Shake it Up
- Put the lid on and shake for ten seconds. You want the mixture to be very cold and blended.
Strain the Drink
- Pour the red liquid over the ice in your glass. Use a strainer to get a clean, smooth pour.
Garnish the Juice
- Add two fresh cherries on top of the drink. You can use gummy vampire teeth for a fun look.
Notes
- Use plenty of ice to keep it very frosty.
- Black cherry syrup is the secret to the flavor.
- Shake the mix very hard to get a foam.
- Use fresh lime juice for a much better zing.
- Serve it in a clear glass to show color.
- Add a splash of soda for a bubbly twist.
- Chill your glass in the freezer before you pour.
