About


Red Candy Rim for the glass:
1/2 c. sugar
1/4 c. clear corn syrup
1/4 c. water
red food coloring, to desired shade of "blood"
Combine all ingredients in a saucepot over medium-high heat.
Bring to a low boil, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon to be sure the sugar dissolves completely.
Allow to bubble for 5 minutes (if you have a candy thermometer, allow it to reach 300-degrees F). 
Remove from heat. Dip rims of cocktail glasses into the sticky goo, but be careful not to get any of this on you - it is like lava and will burn!
