Instructions

  1. Combine sugar, beet juice, and syrup in a heavy bottomed saucepan. Cook over medium high heat, and stir and let come to a slow boil.
  2. Turn off heat. While the mixture is still hot, dunk the top of the cocktail glass into the mixture to create the bloody rim. Flip the glass right side up until it is done dripping.
  3. Let cool for one hour to harden or use soon after and lick the rim while you drink your blood.
  4. Combine beet juice, tequila, liqueur, lemon juice, agave nectar, and soda in a large pitcher. Stir and add more agave nectar according to how sweet you want it. Serve in blood-dripped glasses and garnish with blood droplets (aka, pomegranate seeds).

Notes

  • For the soda, I recommend San Pellegrino. 
  • Serve this cocktail in blood-rimmed glasses. The drinks can be served while the blood is sweet and wet or once hardened.
