"Mad Eye Moody" is a fictitious character in the Harry Potter series. He's particularly renowned for his "shifty" magical eye that had its own powers, such as seeing things at the back of his head and through objects. You can recreate an artwork of an "eye" using a lychee garnish for this vivid blue drink for any occasion, and it's especially suitable to serve for Halloween.
