Notes

- Adjust sweetness by modifying the amount of agave syrup to taste.
- For a stronger berry flavor, allow the mixture to chill for 30 minutes before serving.
- Substitute agave syrup with honey or simple syrup if desired.
- Edible Halloween decorations add a fun touch but are optional.
- This mocktail is best served immediately to enjoy the fresh flavors and crushed ice texture.
