With the new year celebration coming up soon, I thought I’d post some mixed drink recipes that either taste like candy or feature candy in the recipe.
- Milky Way Galaxy
- Tootsie Pop
- Tootsie – tastes JUST like a Tootsie Roll, despite the OJ
- Candy Apple
- Jolly Rancher
- SweetTart
- Chocolatini – replace the cherry with a Hershey’s Kiss!
- Liquid Snickers
- Pink Cotton Candy
- Pixie Drink (has Pixie Stix)
- 7-day Pill Box (similar to Skittlebrau)
- Candy Cane
- Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup
- Candy Corn
- Caramel Candy Apple
- Peppermint Martini
Don’t forget to use some Cocktail Candy on those rims!
My favorite is the Tootsie cocktail – simply because it is amazing how much it tastes like a Tootsie Roll – and you wouldn’t think it would since the main ingredient is orange juice!

Good idea!
My favourite sweetie (candy to you) would be the reese’s peanut butter cup – especially since we don’t get them here in Scotland (except for some dodgy-ish shops in town) but I’m not sure I would enjoy it as a drink.
I think one may be fine but more might be sickly dangerous…

Anyway,
I live in Seattle, Washington, and one day while with my friends at a Wild Waves and Entanted Village park( Basically and water park and a six flags together) I was in the candy part of the park, and we were all thirsty so we went to the fridge thing, and we found these drinks. They had there a
Starburt drink, a Milkyway drink and a Snikers drink. I didn’t buy, cause frankly, I was kind of grossed out. It would be cool if you could find any information about this.
Hope to hear from you,
– A fellow Candy Addict.
RESPONSE: Hi Morgan! I actually covered these already! :)
