Cran-Cherry Plasma Transfusion - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 (15 ounce) can fruit cocktail
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can dark sweet cherries
2 cups cranberry juice cocktail
Preparation
-
For transfusion bags:.
6 zipper-lock sandwich bags.
6 straws, twisted or flexible.
6 shower curtain rings.
Puree the fruit cocktail and cherries , with their liquids, in a blender or food processor until smooth. Mix in the cranberry juice cocktail and refrigerate until chilled.
To prepare the \"transfusion bags,\" punch a hole with a hole-punch in the corner of one layer of a zipper-lock sandwich bag just below the zipper. Insert a twisty straw or flexible straw in the hole and punch another hole in the same corner of the bag through both layers, just above the zipper. Thread a shower curtain ring through that hole. Repeat with remaining bags, straws and shower curtain rings.
To serve, pour 1 cup of the cranberry-cherry mixture into each bag and seal. Hang by the shower curtain rings on hooks. Guests can hold their drink by the ring and sip through the straw.
Note: If you want a more adult cocktail, add 3/4-cup vodka to the juice mixture before chilling. This mixture will yield 9, 3/4-cup servings.
