These DIY Jolly Rancher Drinks Are A Cocktail Dream Come True

If you're anything like me, you've been eyeing a good cocktail to switch up the usual suspects at parties — this may be just the one.

Cocktails make a crafty alternative to boring old beer, and if you're feeling adventurous then this jolly rancher drink recipe from the nice people at Tipsy Bartender is the one for you. (Attention, sweet tooth-people out there!) You can use any number of small glass containers to mix the vodka base for this drink, but in the demonstration they use bottles in the 375 ml arena.

The number of Jolly Ranchers you'll need will be dependent on how much flavored vodka you want to make, but these two made a bottle for each of the candy's flavors (green apple, cherry, watermelon, grape, and blue raspberry) and put about 12 pieces of each flavor in each bottle. Then, they filled the remaining bottle space with vodka, lidded them, and placed them in the fridge for 24 hours. When they pulled them out, the candies had dissolved and their vodka was ready to serve. Pretty simple no?

They also include a suggestion cocktail mix at the end of the video. Check it out, and if you find yourself looking for more yummy drink recipes, try wine gummies.
