Poisoned Apple Cider Cocktail

I’ve talked before about how we don’t have to attend adult Halloween parties much anymore… hellllooooo homebodies, but if you’re the partying kind, this drink is PERFECT for a signature cocktail.  It’s sweet, apple-y with a spiced kick from the rum, and the best part is the mesmerizing shimmery swirls!

Have you ever had the liqueur Viniq?  The bottles are SO much fun to pick up and swirl around at the liquor store.  However, I’ve never a fan of the actual taste of Viniq, which is a shame!  Thanks to my amazing friend Dini over at The Flavor Bender, she’s come up with several recipes for homemade Viniq, which are fabulous!!  Her homemade version is where I got the idea to add the luster dust, which is what gives the drink those shimmery swirls.
If you’re worried about consuming the dust, it’s food grade and completely edible.  You can also serve this cocktail without it, but I just love the eerie look it gives!  I bought mine at my local cake decorating store, but I’ve also linked to a similar one on amazon in the recipe below.  You can use any color you’d like… I chose gold here.



Ingredients

  • 4 oz apple cider
  • 1 1/2 oz spiced rum
  • 1 1/2 oz pomegranate juice
  • 3/4 oz grenadine
  • scant 1/4 tsp edible luster dust (I used a gold color, but silver is also beautiful)

Instructions

  1. Add ice to cocktail shaker, add ingredients, cover and shake.  Strain into glass and serve!
