HALLOWEEN COCKTAILS

What better way to celebrate the spookiest night of the year than with a haunting Halloween party? There are plenty of things you can do to spook and scare your guests but why not raise spirits (quite literally) with a few blood-curdlingly tasty cocktails? Check out our top 5 favourite Halloween tipples.

 

BLOODY DEVIL 

 
 
Ideal for: Fruity Freaks
 
¾ oz. Orange/Mandarin vodka (Svedka and Asolut both do great orange-based ones)
¾ oz. sweet vermouth
¾ oz. orange juice
½ oz. orange curaçao
Dash orange bitters
 
Fake blood:
½ c. white corn syrup
1 tbsp. cornstarch
to ¼ c. water
15 drops red food colouring
5 drops blue food colouring
 
Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake and strain in a glass drizzled with fake blood.
 
 

HALLOWEEN HYPNOTIST

 
 
 
2 oz Hpnotiq liqueur (available from Amazon)
1 oz vodka
Splash of lemon juice
Glow stick for garnish
 
Combine all the ingredients together and then add a blue-coloured glow stick, making sure it doesn't leak and poison you. Assuming it doesn't, the blue glow effect will be really cool and super-spooky.

 

THE ZOMBIE

 
 
 
 
1 1/2 oz - golden rum
1 oz - dark rum
1 oz lime juice
1 teaspoon pineapple juice
1 teaspoon papaya juice
1 teaspoon castor sugar
 
Stir together all ingredients and pour into a glass 3/4 full of cracked ice. Garnish with mint (either straight or dipped in lime juice and then the sugar) and/or fruit.

 

BLOOD & SAND

 
 
 
3/4 oz Scotch whiskey
3/4 oz Rosso Vermouth
1/4 oz Cherry Brandy
1 orange
 
Shake over ice cubes, strain into a cocktail glass and serve.

 

BLACK CAT COCKTAIL

 
 
 
 
1 oz Vodka
1oz Cherry Brandy
Cranberry Juice
Coca Cola to taste
