Happy Halloween! This was a strong drink that left me very disappointed because it tasted like orange Tang with Vodka. I infused the vodka and candy corn for approx. 8 hours. I stirred the mix and the candy corns were completely dissolved. The vodka was a beautiful orange color and it tasted like candy corn. YAY! After it was mixed with the orange liqueur (I used Cointreau) and lemon juice, it became an orange flavored drink. I would much rather drink the candy corn infused vodka by itself over ice. I didn’t add the raw egg white so mine didn’t have the frothy white cap as shown in the recipe photo.

Hey, Mommyluvs2cook! Trying new drinks always seems to be hit or miss. I still like to try new drinks because you just never know what mixes and what doesn't.

I missed this one DIZ, sorry, it's a beautiful picture! I agree, I would have stopped at just the vodka. Cointreau is so strong and to me takes over and lemon juice would just sour it up. Next year you'll know best what to do.

Thank you, LindaLMT! It never occurred to me at the time, but I probably should have used Triple Sec or another orange flavored liqueur. Cointreau is always my "go to" when making other drinks like margaritas. I'm kind of puzzled by the addition or orange and lemon to this in the first place.
