Transforming BBQ favorites into body parts continues for our Dead Man’s BBQ theme with this super simple idea to dress up your favorite Halloween punch. I used store bought gummy eyeball candy to make these way cool ice cubes for our spooky Halloween party punch. Strawberries and lemonade are summer BBQ favorites, so I made a strawberry lemonade flavored punch to go along with our theme, but feel free to use any of your favorite red juices to mix up your punchbowl. I added a little pomegranate juice to deepen the red into a crimson bloodbath, along with lots of ice to help buoy the eyeballs so that they’re the focal point of your gathering. Enjoy!

Equipment

Large square ice cube trays (see recipe note)

Ingredients

2 quarts strawberry lemonade
2 quarts cran-strawberry juice
2 cups pomegranate juice
16 gummy eyeballs
1 cup strawberry jam
2 cups vodka or rum (optional)
Lots of ice

Instructions

Evil Eye-z Cubes

Fill up ice cube trays 2/3 the way full with strawberry lemonade and freeze until frozen. Add gummy eyeballs to the tops of the frozen lemonade and spoon a little bit of strawberry jam around each eyeball and then float a thin amount of pomegranate juice to surround the eyeball but not enough to submerge it. Freeze over night.

Punch

When ready to serve, add all the remaining juices into a large punchbowl. Add 2 cups of the vodka or rum to the punchbowl for an adult's only cocktail or omit for a kid friendly version. Add lots of regular ice and then add the Evil Eye-z cubes, nestling them in with the regular ice cubes to keep the eyeball upright.

Notes

I purchased the eyeball gummy candy and the large square ice cube trays from the 99cents Only Store.
