Servings: 3

Prep Time: 15 min.

Ingredients

  • 3 marshmallows
  • 1 tbsp. light corn syrup
  • 4 tbsp. purple decorating sugar
  • 3 straws
  • 1 package Pop Rocks candy
  • 1 cup ice
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 cup grape juice

Supplies

  • Dora straw toppers

Directions

  1. Step 1

    Thread a marshmallow onto a straw about 3 inches down from the top. Repeat with the other marshmallows and straws. Trim the edges of the marshmallows to make it more rounded.

  2. Step 2

    Heat the corn syrup in a small container until bubbly, about 5 seconds. Spread the hot syrup all over the marshmallow in a thin layer. Immediately sprinkle or roll the brushed marshmallow into the purple sugar to coat. Repeat with the other marshmallows.

  3. Step 3

    Spread the Pop Rocks in a shallow dish. Lightly brush the top edge of three small glasses with some of the remaining corn syrup. Dip the coated rim in the Pop Rocks.

  4. Step 4

    Combine the ice, blueberries, and grape juice in a blender. Pulse until smooth. Add 1/4 cup of water if mixture is too thick.

  5. Step 5

    Divide the smoothie between the three glasses. Add the marshmallow straw and straw topper.
