For the ice moon, freeze a mixture of orange juice and water in a bowl that's 8 inches in diameter. In a large punch bowl, gently stir together Concord-grape juice, ginger soda, seltzer, and fresh lime juice. To release the moon, dip the bottom of the frozen bowl in hot water until the ice starts to melt at the edges. Remove the bowl from the water and turn it onto a plate. Place the moon in the punch, flat-side up, and if desired, arrange candy bats on top.

Thanks, Wren! I am definitely going to modify this for a cocktail... Dropping a large round ice ball of orange juice/bitters into a Black Manhattan. Just trying to think of the appropriate name.

Oh yeah, that’s this weekend. Awesome!
Yup. I'm sure I'll complain Monday morning, but I intend to be watching that thing.
There is a Friday the 13th Part VIII joke here somewhere…
HAHA
The Lazarus (I had to google the plot and apparently that's the boat that Jason stows away on).
Nah..lousy name.
Manhattan runs red?
That's pretty good.
My mind keeps drifting to Muppets Take Manhattan.
Not spooky enough.
I dunno. My mother was always telling us how much she hated Miss Piggy for some reason. Like loathed. Like scary loathing.
There is already a 'Red Moon over Manahattan' cocktail...I wonder if this version could be the 'Blood Moon over Manhattan'
just googled it. I'd drink it!
2 oz. red wine
1/2 oz. bourbon
1/2 oz. simple syrup
1 large round ice sphere
2 gourmet maraschino cherries
Truth be told, I actually went right to the cabinet after typing that comment and got started on making one.
That kind of thing seems to happen a lot where bourbon is involved...
Oh, that sounds so good!!
Right?
Never had a cocktail with wine in it. I'm very intrigued.
