      2. Slice off the ends of both olives to make 4 rounded pieces with holes in the middle
      3. Press an olive segment into each mozzarella ball cut side up then take a small piece of red pepper and poke this into the centre of each olive.
      4. Thread 2 eyeballs onto each cocktail stick.

      Make the cocktails

      1. Measure the tomato juice, vodka and lemon juice into a large glass jug. Add the ice cubes.
      2. Add the Brown Sauce, Hot Pepper sauce (to taste), celery salt and pepper and stir until the jug feels cold.
      3. Add a couple of ice cubes to each of the highball glasses. Strain the cocktail between the two glasses and place a celery stick in each glass.
      4. Add a straw and swizzle stick.
      5. Garnish with the mozzarella and black olive “eyeballs” and enjoy your Witches’ Brew!
