A must every Halloween - this recipe is great fun! A fake hand is frozen in a rubber glove and then presented in a bucket or glass punch bowl. Dress the hand up with a few Halloween gimmicks like spiders.

Recipe provided by:

Allrecipes

Ingredients

300g (11 oz) frozen raspberries, thawed
600ml (1 pint) cranberry juice
1 sachet powdered gelatine
2L (3 1/2 pints) ginger ale
2L (3 1/2 pints) sparkling apple juice (non-alcoholic)
6 Gummi snakes

Preparation method

1. To make the frozen hand: Wash and rinse the outside of a rubber glove. Turn glove inside out and set aside. In a 1 litre measuring jug, combine the thawed raspberries and cranberry juice.
 
2. Pour half of the raspberry mixture into a small saucepan. Sprinkle the gelatin over and let stand 2 minutes. Warm over low heat, stirring constantly, just until gelatin dissolves. Mix back into the reserved raspberry mixture in the measuring jug.
 
3. Pour raspberry mixture into the inverted glove. Gather up the top of the glove and tie securely with kitchen string. Freeze until solid, or several days if possible.
 
4. To serve: Carefully cut rubber glove away from frozen hand. Place frozen hand, palm side up, leaning against side of a large punch bowl. Pour in ginger ale and sparkling cider. Garnish with Gummi snakes.

  • Great idea....made several of them and had them floating in the bowl or hanging onto the edge.

    I bought the most inexpensive gloves I could find. I didn't realise how short they would be so instead of one giant arm I had two hands. I served this at my Halloween Party and everyone thought it was very festive.
