Dead Man’s Icy Hands

An easy, low-cost way to add a splash of scary to your party: make a Dead Man’s Icy Hand. Just fill a clean non-latex glove (some people are allergic to latex) with water, tie off the end, and stick it in your freezer for a few hours. Peel off the plastic, and you’re done.

To make the punch pictured above, combine 1 chilled bottle of vodka and 2 chilled 2-liter bottles of Sprite in a punch bowl. Add some red food coloring to make it bloody-looking, and then stick your dead hand right in the center (in the past, mine have tended to fall over and float around in the punch; whatever, it still gets the point across). Add some marshmallows, and then squirt more red food coloring over the whole mess to make it even bloodier.

I’ll admit, it’s not exactly a gourmet beverage, but it’s certainly…festive.
