  1. Don't know the details of the book. I have looked up similar recipes before. Here's something you can ad to EVERY Halloween drink to give it that special look. It may be what's floating the "martini" in the pic. Buy canned lychee fruit (make sure its pitted), some blueberries (frozen works, but use only the biggest ones and thaw them), some toothpicks, and red food coloring (the stuff in the dropper bottles works best). Put the blueberry in the cavity in the lychee, shove the toothpick through to support it (go lengthwise through the lychee and then the blueberry so you keep it looking like an eye), and add a drop of red food coloring to the assembly to simulate blood. Looks outstanding, and lychees and blueberries taste great together. Both quite sweet. Enjoy.
