NEEDED:
For the "Blood":
3 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon red food coloring

For the "ghoulada mixture":
20 ounces pineapple juice, or more to taste
1 fifteen-ounce can cream of coconut
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup freshly squeezed juice
10 ounces good-quality run (optional)

This mixture can be made several hours in advance and chilled. The food coloring might give your lips a vampirish look.

1. Pour the corn syrup in a shallow bowl. Dip a toothpick into the food coloring, and stir a very small amount into the syrup to combine. Holding a martinit glass by the stem, dip rim into the syrup mixture, and turn glass, coating entire rim. Turn the glass upright, allowing mixture to drop down sides. Dip the remaining glasses. Set aside.

2. Whisk together pineapple juice, cream of coconut, heavy cream, orange juice, and rum. If using. Place 2 1/2 cup ice in the jar of a blender, and add 1 cup of the drink mixture. Blend until smooth; add more pineapple juice if mixture is too thick. Repeat with more ice and another cup mixture until all mixture is used. Carefully pour into prepared glasses; serve.
