Ingredients:

  • 2 oz vanilla-infused vodka
  • 4 pink Starburst candies
  • 1.5 oz fresh strawberry puree
  • 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice
  • 0.5 oz low-sugar watermelon pucker
  • 0.25 oz agave nectar
  • 1 tsp fine pink sanding sugar
  • 1 lemon wedge
  • 2 pink Starburst candies for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Rim the glass. Rub the lemon wedge around the edge of a chilled martini or coupe glass.
  2. Apply the sugar. Dip the moistened rim into the pink sanding sugar until it forms a consistent, sparkling crust.
  3. Prepare the shaker. Add the 2 oz vanilla infused vodka and the 4 pink Starburst candies into the shaker. Note: Do this before adding ice to let the alcohol start softening the candy.
  4. Add the fruit. Pour in the 1.5 oz fresh strawberry puree and 0.5 oz lemon juice.
  5. Build the flavor. Add the 0.5 oz watermelon pucker and 0.25 oz agave nectar to the mix.
  6. Chill and infuse. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for 30 seconds until the shaker feels frost bitten and cold.
  7. Strain the liquid. Double strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into your prepared glass until the liquid is smooth and velvety.
  8. Garnish and serve. Skewer the remaining 2 Starburst candies and place them across the rim.
