I do some twisting at a local college for the dentistry and nursing departments and have used clear balloons with red food coloring on the inside - the air pushes the food color around whilse inflating and gives somewhat of a spatter and/or smear effect (randomly obviously). It may be sufficient for your needs.

Clear/Crystal balloons have a horrible texture (imo - and if the colors were avaliable elsewhere I'd not use them myself. Make sure you "burp" the balloons well as to keep the food color spatter inside the balloon and not on your audience by way of popping)
