Spooky Apple Punch

Spooky Apple Punch

A seasonal offering available at the Disney Flame Tree Barbecue in September and October, this punch is very much like a green apple Shirley Temple. The familiar fizzy taste of the lemon-lime soda is beautifully matched to the sour apple syrup. It’s a new twist on an old classic. Adding the sugar-lime rim and Candy-Coated Straw really takes this drink to the next level—but you don’t have to add them if you don’t want to. This drink looks great at a fun Halloween party, or just being glugged on a Tuesday at home! Complete the effect with an official Disney glow cube. 

Ingredients: 

For Punch 

  • 1⁄2 small lime 
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest 
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar 
  • 11⁄2 ounces Granny Smith apple syrup 
  • 8 ounces lemon-lime soda 

For Candy-Coated Straw 

  • 3 green apple Jolly Rancher candies 
  • 3 green apple Life Savers candies, crushed 

For Garnish 

  • 1 gummy worm 

Instructions:

  1. To make Punch: Rub rim of a 16-ounce plastic cup or glass with lime. Stir together lime zest and sugar in a shallow dish and dip rim of glass in zest and sugar mix. Twist in sugar to coat rim. 
  2.  Pour apple syrup and lemon-lime soda into the prepared glass.
  3.  To make Candy-Coated Straw: Microwave Jolly Ranchers on high 1 minute in a small microwave-safe bowl. Pour crushed Life Savers into a shallow dish. Use a butter knife to smooth melted Jolly Ranchers onto the outside of a plastic straw, then quickly roll the straw in Life Savers. 
  4.  To serve: Add ice to Punch to fill glass, then add Candy-Coated Straw and gummy worm.
  5. Serve!
