SUGAR RIM SUPPLIES:

• Parchment Paper
• Karo Syrup

Individual Sprinkles In Rainbow Colors:

• Primary Color Sprinkles
• Orange Sprinkles
• Purple Sprinkles
• Icing Bottle 
• Green Candy Melts (not pictured)
• Pencil

How to rim a glass with sugar:

First, trace the top of the glass onto the parchment paper. Carefully make small piles using the colored sugars, in the order of the rainbow, around the penciled circle.

Pour a small amount of the Karo Syrup into the bottom of a shallow plate.

Make sure the glass can lay flat on the plate so that the syrup rims the glass evenly.

Dip the glass into the sugar, giving it a little wiggle. I also used my finger to push the sugar up the side of the glass to help it stick to the syrup. Wow – a rainbow-rimmed glass!

How To Make Chocolate Shamrocks:

To give my drink the “Luck of the Irish” look, I made these small Chocolate Candy Shamrocks! These look harder to make than they are. I melted the candy melts in the microwave then scooped the chocolate into a plastic squeeze bottle.

For more on this technique, see this previous post on how to drizzle chocolate.

I actually drew a clover on the parchment paper for my first one but realized they turned out better if I just freestyled them. Think, four small hearts, that come together as you make them…split the stem at the end.

They start to harden up on their own, but I did pop them in the freezer for about five minutes to firm them up. I added a little bit of the soft chocolate in the crook of the stem to “glue” them to the rim! Don’t use glue…haha…just warm chocolate! Love how they turned out!
