Best Bloody Eyeball Punch Recipes

BLOODY EYEBALL PUNCH

Steps:

• Stuff the cherries into the holes of the lychees, using a toothpick to keep them in place if necessary. Place each stuffed lychee on a sheet pan or in a freezer-safe casserole dish. Freeze for at least 8 hours and up to overnight.
• Mix the prosecco, vodka and cherry juice together in a large punch bowl. Taste and add the reserved lychee juice as needed for sweetness. Remove the toothpicks from the frozen lychees. Add the "eyeballs" to the punch and serve with a gummy worm draped over the rim of each glass, if desired.

ZOMBIE EYEBALL PUNCH

Steps:

• In a saucepan, bring the cream, sugar and lemon extract to a simmer. Slowly sprinkle the calcium lactate into the pan and mix with a hand blender. Chill.
• Meanwhile prepare the molds (I use a small flexi-mold, but any mold that is able to be flexible will do) with a dot of melted chocolate to resemble a pupil, and place in the refrigerator to set. Then brush the blue cocoa butter to resemble the iris, and pipe in the jelly to resemble bloody veins.
• Once the cream mixture is cold, whip to a soft peak using a hand mixer. Pipe into the prepared molds and freeze until set.
• Unmold the eyeballs and leave them soaking in the Alginate Solution for about 2 minutes. Then rinse with cold water and store in the fridge until you are ready to serve.
• Place the eyeballs in a dish (2 each is appropriately scary) and top with the lime soda. I find that a clear soda without color gives the eyeballs a better look and flavor.
• Sprinkle the sodium alginate into the water and, using a hand blender, mix the solution until there is no more visible powder left. This takes a couple of minutes. Chill the solution until you are ready to use it.

BERRY EYEBALL PUNCH

Steps:

• Puree the blackberries, lychee syrup and lemon juice in a blender. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a pitcher, pressing on the solids with a rubber spatula. Add the acai juice and blueberry juice. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 2 hours.
• Gently push a blueberry into the cavity of each lychee. Transfer the punch to a punch bowl or pitcher and add the stuffed lychees, then gently stir in the lemon-lime soda and rum, if using. Serve over ice.

BLOODY PUNCH

Steps:

• Fill a powder-free latex glove with punch; tie closed. Freeze at least 6 hours or overnight. (For the best shape, hang the glove from a rack in your freezer with the fingers pointing down.)
• When ready to serve, combine the remaining fruit punch, daiquiri mix, Dr Pepper, grape-raspberry juice and ginger ale in a large punch bowl. Peel the glove off the frozen hand and add to the bowl.

BLUEBERRY RICKETY EYEBALL PUNCH

Steps:

• Stick 1 to 2 blueberries, depending on their size, into the cavity of each lychee. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet and freeze, about 1 hour. (Wait until the "eyeballs" thaw a bit before eating, so that you don't choke on them.) Stir together 5 tablespoons of the lychee syrup, the blueberry juice and lime juice in a bowl or pitcher until combined. Stir in the sparkling water and add the lychee eyeballs. If it is a bit tart for your taste, add the remaining tablespoon syrup. Serve in tall glasses over ice, spooning the lychee eyeballs into the glasses as you pour. For a grown-up twist, stir in the gin before adding the sparkling water. Enjoy!
