  • Ice Tip: Freeze small jelly beans or fruit pieces into ice cubes for a decorative and functional garnish.

    No problem! The natural tint from the juice will give the drink a light pastel color, or you can skip the coloring altogether for a more natural look.
  • Is edible glitter safe for everyone?
    Yes, as long as you’re using food-grade edible glitter, it’s completely safe and tasteless, so it won’t alter the flavor of the drink.
