Halloween Series: 'Spookily Sweet' Cocktail

I'm rather fond of a little tipple... the sweeter, the better! I love making cocktails, I'm no expert (well I am at drinking them!), but I love creating concoctions! I first made this cocktail a couple of years ago and it is one of my favourites. Not only does it taste AMAZING... it is also looks awesome!

Then add the coconut rum.

Place the spoon up-side-down, leaning it against the side of the glass. Slowly pour the cranberry juice down the back of the spoon a little at the time. Stop and then turn the glass and repeat (this is so it is evenly distributed).
