recently tried out a fun and nostalgic drink that I think you’re going to love—an Ecto Cooler! It’s bright, refreshing, and perfect for cooling down on a hot day. Plus, it brings back all those awesome childhood memories. Let’s dive right in!
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup orange juice
- 3/4 cup tangerine juice
- 1/4 cup lemonade
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 1/4 teaspoon orange extract
- 4 drops green food coloring
- Ice cubes
- Slices of lime or orange for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Mix the Juices: In a large pitcher, combine the orange juice, tangerine juice, lemonade, and lime juice. Give it a good stir until everything is well mixed.
- Add Flavor: Add the orange extract to the mixture. This gives it that extra citrusy punch!
- Color It Up: Drop in the green food coloring and stir until the color is evenly distributed. It should look nice and vibrant green!
- Chill: Pop the pitcher in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to let it chill. You can also add ice cubes to cool it down faster.
- Serve: Pour the Ecto Cooler into glasses over ice cubes. Garnish with slices of lime or orange if you’re feeling fancy.
