Answer 1

Use animation and adjust the properties like below:

.blink {
  color:black;
  font-size:30px;
  font-weight:bold;
  animation:blink 2.5s linear infinite alternate 2.5s;

}

@keyframes blink {
  80% {
    color:black;
  }
  90% {
    color:red;
  }
  100% {
    color:black;
  }
}

<div class="blink">This text will blink twice every 5 seconds</div>

Answer 2

#text {
  font-weight: bold;
  font-size: 20px;
  animation-name: blink;
  animation-duration: 5s;
   animation-iteration-count: infinite;
}

@keyframes blink {
    0% {color: pink}
    50% {color: black;}
    100% {color: pink;}
    }

<div id="text">
  No more lights
</div>
