Ingredients
Scale
- 6 ounces orange juice
- 2 ounces vodka
- 2 ounces coconut cream
- 1 ounce grenadine
- Candy corn for garnish
- Ice cubes
- Optional food coloring
Instructions
- Start by filling your glass about halfway with ice cubes. This not only chills the drink but also helps with layering.
- In a shaker, combine 2 ounces (60 ml) of vodka and 6 ounces (180 ml) of orange juice. Shake well to mix.
- Pour the orange juice mixture slowly over the ice, filling the glass about two-thirds full.
- Next, carefully pour 2 ounces (60 ml) of coconut cream over the back of a bar spoon to create the creamy white layer. Move slowly to avoid blending the layers.
- Finish by gently pouring 1 ounce (30 ml) of grenadine over the bar spoon to create the yellow top layer. The grenadine will sink slightly, creating a gradient effect.
- Garnish with candy corn pieces on a skewer or along the rim of the glass. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
[‘Pour each layer slowly using the back of a spoon for clean layers.’, ‘Use chilled juices and syrups for better layering.’, ‘Adjust sweetness by reducing grenadine or using unsweetened coconut cream.’, ‘Practice layering in a small glass if needed.’, ‘Clear glasses are essential to showcase the candy corn-inspired layers.’]
