Notes
- Customize Your Flavor: The beauty of this cocktail is its versatility. You can use different fruit schnapps flavors to create a wide range of "Jolly Rancher" colors and tastes, from watermelon and grape to cherry and blue raspberry.
- Make It Bubbly: For a fizzy and lighter version, you can swap the cranberry juice for a clear soda like lemon-lime soda or sparkling water.
- Jolly Rancher Infusion: For a super-intense Jolly Rancher flavor, you can infuse vodka with the candies themselves. Just add 10-15 candies to a bottle of vodka, let them dissolve for 24 hours, and use that as the base for your cocktail.
- Is this a strong drink? The Jolly Rancher is a moderately strong cocktail. The sweet, fruity flavors can mask the alcohol, but it is a potent drink and should be consumed responsibly.
- What does a Jolly Rancher cocktail taste like? It's a sweet, fruity, and tangy cocktail. The primary flavors are green apple and peach, with a tart kick from the cranberry juice, all blended with a crisp vodka base.
