Notes

To make this mocktail even more special, prepare it a day ahead but add the lemon-lime soda just before serving to keep it fizzy. Use spooky garnishes like candy corn, skeleton sprinkles, or rims with green sugar or crushed cookies for a dirt effect. For a smoky effect, handle dry ice with caution. Adults can add vodka or light rum if desired. Adding a splash of ginger ale or fresh lime juice provides additional flavor boost.
