How to Make the Best Halloween Themed Cocktails


Halloween shouldn’t be only fun for the kids. If you are planning an adult-themed Halloween party, spirits of many kinds are probably on your list. There are many cocktails that can be transformed into spooky Halloween treats. Here are a few ideas:

Blue Ghost
Ingredients:
3 part lime vodka
1 part blue curacao
Sprite or 7 up

Fill a highball glass with ice. Add ingredients and mix well. For an extra spooky treat, decorate with carbonic ice.

Sewer Water
Ingredients:
1 part vodka
2 parts Dr. Pepper
1 part orange juice

Fill a highball glass with ice. Add ingredients and mix well. Add a Halloween themed umbrella or lemon slice for decoration.

Vampire’s Blood

1 part bourbon whiskey
1 part Drambuie
1 part Dubonnet

Stir ingredients with ice. Strain into a cocktail glass. Add a cherry or lemon slice for decoration.

Halloween Themed Black and Orange Screwdriver
Ingredients:
1 ½ oz. black Blavod Black vodka
3 oz. tangerine juice

Fill a highball glass with ice. Add tangerine juice first, and vodka on top. Decorate with Halloween candy on a swizzle stick.

Jack-o-Tini
2 parts vodka chilled
¼ part Bols Pumpkin Smash Liqueur
Small pumpkins

Put a large soup pot on the stove and boil. Carve the tops off of the small pumpkins and set aside. Scoop out the insides of the pumpkin along with the seeds so only a thin shell is left. The seeds and flesh will not be needed. Place the pumpkins in the boiling water and let sit for approximately a minute. Remove the pumpkins from the water and let drain. Combine vodka and liqueur in shaker with ice and shake well. Strain into pumpkin and serve with Halloween themed straw and other decorations as desired.

Creepy Crawling Bug Juice
1 part coconut flavored rum
1 part Blue Hawaiian Maui Schnapps
5 parts orange juice

Combine ingredients in shaker with ice. Shake well. For an aesthetically spooky touch, serve in mason jars with gummy worm decorations!

When planning any party, make sure there are enough designated drivers. It’s always a good idea to take keys at the door.
