So what is a Nerds Sour Candy Cocktail? One word sums this drink up pretty well: Scrumdiddlyumptious. It is a real word according to Urban Dictionary, google it. But seriously, this drink is pretty damn tasty. It mixes the sweet and sour world of Nerds with the sensually intoxicating effects of alcohol. Also it has a pretty dope green coloring to it.
Here are some Legit Instructions:
1. Prepare the cup by adding corn syrup to the rim of the cup and dip it in the nerds, put it in the refrigerator until the layers are ready.
2. Blend all the yellow layer ingredients together and set it aside in the freezer in a container, meanwhile blend all the green layer ingredients together. Set in the freezer for a few minutes for easier handling.
3. Take the cup out of the refrigerator. Take a wooden spoon or something that will fit in the middle to separate the colors. Put the mixes into a plastic bag and cut a hole in it. Put the yellow mix in one side and quickly add the green in the other side, carefully take out the separator in the middle and use both color nerds to use as garnish at the top.
