October 13: Heart of Darkness

This drink is a fun science experiment to wow drinkers. When mixed in front of them, it’s a fun surprise to see orange and grape sodas transform into an inky black drink. You may need to experiment with different brands as some sodas, while clearly purple and orange, create more of a muddy color than black.

The trick to this drink is that the orange and grape sodas MUST be orange and purple, not just flavored appropriately.

Taste profile: sweet

Ingredients:

• 1 part rum
• ½ part whiskey
• 2 parts orange soda – it must be orange colored and flavored
• 2 parts grape soda – it must be purple colored

Build the drink in your glass over ice. I recommend adding alcohol first and then pouring the two sodas simultaneously to perform a lovely science experiment for your guest.
