Swedish Fish candy are a popular choice for this drink. You can also find Scandinavian Swimmers at Trader Joe's, which is their brand of fish candies. Another fun option is to swap them out for shark candy in honor of Shark Week.
You can easily turn this drink into a mocktail by swapping the liquor for lemonade and choosing a nonalcoholic blue curacao syrup. If making this drink for children, we recommend a plastic fishbowl.
Choose a different color straw for each person so they don't get mixed up. Guests will appreciate this detail.
Add some "gravel" to the bottom of your fishbowl by pouring a layer of Nerds candy in the bottom of the bowl before assembling the cocktail.
More garnish ideas: lime slices, orange slices, lemon slices and pineapple wedges.
If you prefer, you can double this recipe and serve it in a punch bowl or a pitcher. This makes an excellent batch cocktail.
