8 to 12ounceslemon-lime soda
Instructions
Place 4 to 6 same-color Jolly Rancher candies into a jar or container with a lid. Pour 4 ounces of vodka over the Jolly Ranchers and cover the container with an airtight lid. Allow candies to dissolve in the alcohol for about 24 hours. Stir or swirl occasionally to help combine the mixture.
When ready to make the cocktails, fill glasses with ice.
Add two ounces of candy alcohol to each glass.
Fill the glass the rest of the way with lemon-lime soda.
Top with Jolly Rancher candies and serve.
Notes
This recipe makes a smaller batch of drinks but can easily be doubled to serve more people.
If you want to offer multiple flavors of this drink, make more than one jar of candied vodka using different candy flavors, repeating the step above for each individual flavor.
You can combine different colors of candied vodka, but they will blend together pretty quickly.
The candies will sink into the drink, so fill the glass with ice and place the candies for the garnish on top. Candies will dissolve as they sit in the drink - you can add more lemon-lime soda, vodka, or Jolly Rancher vodka to the glass.
