    Vampire Floats {Halloween Ice Cream Floats}

    Vampire Floats - super easy spooky sippers!

    So, it's pretty much been a progressive Halloween party {in September, ha!} at our house for the last few weekends ... first, we sampled Cyclops Cupcakes and then drank Spooky Sodas.  I decorated my hutch for Halloween, whipped up a wood shim witch hat and then this weekend, we sat and sipped these delightfully dreadful concoctions!

    Vampire Floats

    Vampire Floats - just two ingredients and loads of spook appeal!

    Before I share the super simple two ingredient "recipe", I have a cute story about these floats:  Kaleb's friend was over at our house just in time for the photo shoot for these Vampire Floats to wrap up.  So, I off loaded these floats to the kids and headed to put away all my photo props.  But this particular friend was a little more cautious than most, eyeing the bright red drink and plastic glow in the dark vampire teeth, "Umm, what exactly IS this?"

    Vampire Floats - just two ingredients and loads of spook appeal!

    Have no fear friend, while these Vampire Floats may look like you are about to guzzle a glass of B+, they are really just a delicious combination of Hawaiian punch and vanilla ice cream.  Garnished with a striped paper straw and a set of glow in the dark vampire teeth for good measure. Naturally.

    So fun, right?!  Hawaiian punch is one of my favorite tastes of childhood.  When I was little, I felt so fancy when my mom would make me Hawaiian punch + Sprite.  You could definitely splash in some Sprite for a little fizz or add a shot of your favorite complimentary alcohol to make these for the adults ... either way, they are sure to be a scream at your Halloween get together!

Did you think of these or find idea for them somewhere? Cute with the vampire teeth hanging from straw. Give your self a gold star Keri. Happy week
