Pour on the fun with this easy to make cupcake creation. It gives the illusion that the root beer is pouring into the glass. Use any canned 8 oz beverage including beer. Change the colors and flavors to match.

Ingredients:

 1 vanilla cupcake baked in a brown paper liner
 1/2 cup vanilla frosting
 1/2 to 3/4 cup of root beer flavored jelly beans (Jelly Belly A&W) 
  glass mug
  root beer candy stick 
  clean, empty 8 oz. can of root beer

Fill the mug 3/4 full with the jelly beans. Top with the cupcake. Pipe the vanilla frosting on top of the cupcake to look like foam. Stick the candy stick into the center of the cupcake. Place the clean, empty soda can on top of the candy stick.

All that sugar, all those additives ...

Serve these near the end of a party, just before you send the little darlings home...

It's called "English" - "Hallowe'en" is a contraction of "All Hallow's Eve".

Wow! very cute and unique, I will have to try this one day hopefully I can find a cola candy stick or one that looks like a dew :-) I really hate orange and root beer.

If you have a Cracker Barrel near you, I'm almost positive that they have a cherry cola flavored stick, which I think would work for cola, and they have lemon-lime ones, which I think would pass for dew, or possibly a lemon flavored one?
