  • Splash of grenadine (optional, for added red color and sweetness)

  • Red licorice twists or cinnamon candies (like Red Hots) for garnish

  • Black sugar or crushed red candy (optional, for rimming)


Instructions:

  1. Rim the Glasses (Optional):

    • Rim shot glasses with simple syrup.

    • Dip in black sanding sugar or crushed red candy for a bold look.

      • Black licorice liqueur

      • Cherry liqueur or cinnamon schnapps

      • Splash of grenadine (if desired)

    • Shake until cold and well mixed.

  3. Pour & Garnish:
