Instructions
- Rim the shot glasses with black sugar or edible glitter. Dip the rim in lemon juice or corn syrup first to make the garnish stick.

- Divide the mixture into separate bowls if you’re making multiple colors. Add a few drops of food coloring to each bowl and stir until well mixed.

- Add candy eyeballs, gummy worms, or edible glitter to each shot for a fun, spooky touch.
- Chill the shots in the fridge for 10–15 minutes before serving, or add dry ice for a smoky effect.
