Ingredients
Scale
Rim (optional):
- 1 lime wedge
- ¼ cup sprinkles or decorating sugar
Drink:
- 3 oz cotton candy (per 16 oz glass)
- 12 oz lemon-lime soda
Garnishes:
- 3 oz extra cotton candy (to top, not touching drink)
- Maraschino cherry (optional)
Instructions
- Decorate the rim: Rub a lime wedge around the rim of your glass to moisten it, then dip the rim into sprinkles or decorating sugar to coat it evenly, adding a colorful and sweet border.
- Add cotton candy: Place 3 oz of cotton candy at the bottom of each 16 oz glass carefully, making sure not to touch the rim. This will provide the base sweetness for the mocktail.
- Pour soda: Slowly pour 12 oz of lemon-lime soda over the cotton candy. As the soda touches the cotton candy, it will dissolve and create a fizzy, sweet drink.
- Garnish: Carefully place extra cotton candy on top of the glass without letting it contact the liquid to maintain its fluffy texture. Optionally, add a maraschino cherry or a straw for presentation and added flavor.
Notes
- The cotton candy on top should stay dry and fluffy, so avoid it touching the liquid to prevent melting.
- You can customize the drink by choosing different flavors or colors of cotton candy.
- The rim decoration adds a fun touch but is optional.
- This mocktail is best served immediately to enjoy the fizz and the fresh cotton candy texture.
