STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS

1. Prepare the Jello Cubes
   Start by making the jello. Follow the instructions on the packages of the raspberry jello and grape jello. You will need to boil water and dissolve each jello powder in separate bowls. Pour the mixtures into containers and let them cool in the refrigerator until set.
2. Cut the Jello
   Once the jellos are set, cut them into small cubes. Make big and small cubes for a fun texture in your drink.
3. Layer the Jello in Glasses
   Take your glasses and start adding the jello cubes. You can use a mix of raspberry and grape jello cubes. Fill each glass halfway.
4. Drizzle with Grenadine
   Once the glasses are filled with jello cubes, drizzle a little grenadine on top of the jello. This will give it a spooky look and sweet flavor.
5. Top with Soda
   Finally, pour lemon-lime soda gently over the jello and grenadine. The soda will fizz and bubble, making it extra fun.

HOW TO SERVE Zombie Guts

Zombie Guts is best served cold. You can fill the glasses with ice for an extra chill. Present them on a tray for a festive look. Consider decorating the tray with spooky items like fake spider webs or plastic spiders to create a fun atmosphere.

STORAGE & FREEZING : Zombie Guts

If you have any leftover Zombie Guts, you can store them in the refrigerator. Cover the glasses with plastic wrap to keep the jello fresh. It’s best to eat or drink it within 1-2 days. You can freeze the jello cubes separately for later use, but it’s not recommended to freeze the complete drink as the soda can lose its fizz.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS

For a complete spooky experience, pair Zombie Guts with Halloween-themed snacks like monster cookies, ghost-shaped sandwiches, or spooky popcorn. You can also add gummy worms or eyeball candies to the glasses for extra fun.

VARIATIONS

There are many ways to change up Zombie Guts. You can try different flavors of jello, such as orange or blue raspberry, for new colors and tastes. Adding fresh fruit slices like strawberries or blueberries also adds a refreshing twist. If you want a creamier drink, consider adding whipped cream on top or using cream soda instead of lemon-lime soda.
