    Notes

    Here are a few tips to make this mocktail even spookier or adjust it to your taste.
    If you find the mocktail too sweet or sour, adjust the simple syrup or lemon juice to balance the flavor. Adding a dash of sparkling water can give it a fizzy twist, perfect for Halloween parties.
