hey dudes and fellow dwellers of the
underworld I'm Hilah and today on Hilah
cooking we're making a special Halloween
punch with tequila and liqueurs and
juices and then we're gonna make some
little fake eyeballs to float in it to
make it look spooky but also they taste
good to make our fake eyeballs I've got
some lychee fruit these you buy them in
a can it's either
it'll be spelled ly CH EE or Li
TCH ie it's a fruit of the ages it's a
tropical fruit they come already pitted
and look at that it totally kind of
looks like it could be a human eyeball
right or maybe a cow eyeball if you
could get kauai balls at your butcher
that would actually be a pretty fun
substitute all right so I'm gonna pull
some of these out here I've just got a
little plate that I lined with some
plastic so they don't stick when we put
them in the freezer and just let some of
that extra liquid drip on out of there
and then over here I've got some
maraschino cherries that I've just
distilled and cut in half and those are
gonna be the little like demonic pupils
of our lychee eyeballs so if you have to
the leeches in there too
kind of fun addition and a little fun
play on words right so you just sort of
stove it in there like that
it's pretty simple might stain your
hands but you know what a little blood
stain hand is really good for Halloween
actually pretty sweet and if you are
avoiding red food coloring like is found
in these fake-ass maraschino cherries
you could use some raspberries too
whatever okay great so I've got all
these in if you can only get em strummed
in sideways that's okay it's Halloween
so now I'm gonna throw these in the
freezer until they're frozen solid it's
probably gonna take 3-4 hours okay so
I'm gonna make my punch in this pitcher
so that I can put it in the fridge and
store it for later and drink it all only
at night but if you had some friends
coming over for Halloween and maybe you
wanted to make it a little more festive
you could make a punch bowl out of a
pumpkin like this so all I did was cut
the top out like you do when you're
normally like starting a jack-o'-lantern
carving and scrape out all the seeds
rinse it out on the inside and then I
just did a decorative little zigzag at
the top so it's kind of like the open ma
of a demon it's like
sorry anyway so that's a little idea for
you to make it festive and cute and all
that crap
oh my naman tapas
okay so for the punch I've got some
tequila Reposado and I typically I like
a silver tequila whenever I'm making
like a Margaery and stuff
but the guy at the liquor store told me
that Reposado was better for punch so I
tried it and actually it is really nice
and this is just a little punch that I
came up with all on my lonesome and I've
got some elderflower liqueur if you've
never had this it's very floral you know
and actually I hadn't ever thought of it
before but it really actually smells a
lot like those lychee fruit so we just
used so that was a nice little
coincidence smells good alright so we
need one part of this and that was two
parts of tequila I just put in there so
you can adjust this obviously to however
many people you are serving and then one
part of orange liqueur and I just bought
this one cuz look at that cool bottle
doesn't that look like something that
would be like on like Robinson Crusoe's
ship was that guy did he have a ship I
don't know
and then I've got four parts of white
grapefruit juice and I know a lot of
people don't like grapefruit juice but
the liqueurs and everything are so sweet
and that elderflower is so floral a
little bit of bitterness with the
grapefruit is a real math plus it gives
the whole thing sort of like a look akin
to like a sick person's bile or
something so that's Halloweeny so I'm
gonna give that a stir before we add our
club so d I've got four parts of club so
I'll put the recipe on my website I'm
pretty sure that's what it was supposed
to be cuz when you're doing a punch I
feel like you don't want to make it just
like all booze or else people just get
way too wasted and then you are an
irresponsible host and a bad friend
friends don't let friends drink punch
and drive all right there we go and I've
got a cool Tiki Goblin glass let me grab
my frozen lychee fruit and
I'll pour myself a cup don't mind if I
do
and I should have mentioned before
whenever you do a punch it's really best
if you can have all of your booze and
liqueurs and juices and everything cold
already so that you don't need to water
it down with a bunch of damn ice but
then our little eyeballs are going to
serve as sort of a nice thing look can
you see the eyeballs you bully just did
it in some eyeballs in my church all
