Rotten Apple Punch
Apple cider (adjust the amount for the number of people you plan to
serve; we suggest at least 1 gallon)
5 (1/2-cup) containers
Red and green food coloring
10 to 15 gummy worms
Punch Bowl
Pour apple cider into all 5 (1/2-cup) containers, stopping about
1/2-inch from the top. Add 2 drops of red and 1 drop of green food
coloring to each container and stir until the colors have blended.
Hang 2 or 3 gummy worms around the edge of each dish and place the
dishes in the freezer. If you use more than 3 worms, the rotten
apples won't float as well. Freeze until the rotten apples are
solid.
Just before serving, slip the frozen wormy apples out of the dishes
by setting them briefly in a few inches of warm water in your sink.
Float the rotten apples in a large punch bowl filled with apple
cider. For added creepiness, drape the gummy worms over the edges of
your serving bowl as shown.
Cook's Note: Do steps 1 and 2 the day before serving the punch |
