INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. In a bottle or cocktail shaker combine butterfly pea flower powder, simple syrup, edible glitter, and sparkling water. Give it a good shake.
  2. Fill glasses with ice and pour 2/3 of the way with butterfly pea mixture.
  3. Slowly pour in lemon juice, and watch your cocktail turn from vibrant blue into a deep purple!
  4. Add a small chunk of dry ice (be careful, see notes) to get that amazing spooky effect.
  5. Serve immediately while the dry ice is bubbling away. At this point, your guests can take some fun photos and videos.
  6. Enjoy your drink when the dry ice disappears completely from the glass (in about 5 minutes).

Notes:

Do not swallow dry ice or touch it with bare skin.

Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide. As it melts it turns into a gas, which makes the smoking effect. Dry ice is safe for using in drinks, as long as you avoid swallowing and use tongs during handling. A 1-inch chunk will settle to the bottom of drinks and disappear in about 5 minutes. You can sip the top of the drink, or for maximum safety wait until the dry ice disappears completely from the glass.
