Raspberry Rum Fizz Halloween Cocktail

This Raspberry Rum Fizz Halloween Cocktail is the perfect way to kick back and bring in Halloween. With the combination of White Peach Juice, Raspberry Puree, Raspberry Rum, and Sprite its such a super smooth drink!

Raspberry Rum Fizz

To make this Raspberry Rum Fizz you’ll need raspberry rum, white peach grape juice, sprite, and raspberry puree.

Making the puree is easy. In a food processor add raspberries. Blend them well.

After they’re blended well, you’ll want to get rid of the seeds. Do this by using a strainer to separate the seeds.

If you don’t have a strainer that’s small enough to separate the seeds then you can also use cheesecloth! Make sure you have a bowl placed under the strainer. Carefully pour the puree right through it. Once it’s separated discard seeds. Now the raspberry puree is ready!

Combine the raspberry puree, lime juice, and brown sugar. Mix well. Set aside.

Place two cups of ice in a blender. Blend until it makes crushed ice! Add it to your glass ( I used these cute skeleton glasses I found at Michael’s) . Filling them almost to the top.

Then, add the white peach grape juice and the Raspberry Rum.

Next, You should still have a few inches left from the top, add in the raspberry puree and a splash of sprite. Garnish with raspberries and a peach slice!
