To say that candy corn is a divisive Halloween candy is an understatement. While it might be a classic, people either love it or prefer that it stay out of the candy bowl.

Red Vines is giving candy corn a new spin with its Candy Corn Flavored Twists. This special Halloween candy might make many people learn to appreciate that orange-colored candy.

And, why not let candy corn inspire a mocktail or cocktail. Red Vines shared a Candy Corn mocktail for the spooky season. Although this beverage skips the alcohol, an adult version is an easy modification. Consider adding a little vodka to the mix.

Here’s how to make a Candy Corn Mocktail.

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 2 cups orange soda
  • 4 Red Vines Original Red Twists, ends trimmed
  • 4 cups ice cubes
  • 2 cups lemon-lime sports drink
  • 2 cups zero sugar white sports drinks

Method

  • Dip glass rim in sugar
  • Then fill the glass to the top with ice
  • Slowing pout in ½ cup orange soda, followed by ¼ cup lemon-lime sports drink and ½ cup zero sugar sports drink
  • To maintain the layered effect, do not stir.

Pro Tip: to main layers in a drink, consider pouring liquid over the back of a spoon. It can help to keep the layers intact.
