This bewitching cocktail is made extra spooky with the addition of activated charcoal powder! Perfect for your upcoming Halloween bash - adults only, of course.
We firmly believe that kids shouldn't have all the fun on Halloween. We'll let them have the candy, and keep this beautiful Black Daiquiri for ourselves! Perhaps served alongside these Vegan Twix Bars or Almond Joy Candy Bites. (Okay, forget what we said about giving them the candy. We'll take the cocktail and the chocolate!)
The dry ice is of course not required. We like to go all-out when it comes to holidays, and we weren't about to hold back when it comes to our cocktail. If you do opt for the *extra* touch here, remember that the dry ice is so cold that it can burn. Use gloves to handle!
