1. Start by gathering all your ingredients. Make sure you have your juices and the ginger ale ready.
2. Fill your glass with ice cubes.

HOW TO SERVE Zombie Tonic

When serving Zombie Tonic, presentation can make a difference. Use clear glasses to show off the beautiful colors of the drink and the lychee ‘eyeballs’. You can also add a slice of lime or lemon on the rim of the glass for an extra touch. Straws can make it fun for kids. Enjoy your Zombie Tonic at a spooky-themed party or a casual get-together.

STORAGE & FREEZING: Zombie Tonic

Zombie Tonic is best served fresh. However, if you have leftovers, you can store them in the fridge. Use a covered container to keep the drink fresh. It’s best to drink it within a day. The longer it sits, the fizz will go away, and the drink may lose its sparkle. Avoid freezing it, as the texture and flavors will change once thawed.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS

Zombie Tonic pairs well with many snacks. It goes great with salty chips, popcorn, or finger foods. You can also serve it with a themed meal like spooky hot dogs or Halloween-themed cookies. This drink is perfect for bringing fun to any gathering.
