It’s the spook, spookiest time…of the year! And, nothing is spookier than creepy Halloween cocktails! I love a good cocktail, especially on theme. I’ve rounded up some amazing picks from all over the internet and put them together in an easy collection for you right here. So, it’s time to pop in that scary movie, pop some popcorn and drink these cocktails!
Hocus Pocus Witch’s Brew
By Best Day of the Week
I love this Hocus Pocus themed cocktail from Best Day of the Week. Not only is it based on an absolute Halloween classic, but it’s so fun and colorful. I’m a sucker for a two-toned drink too. This Halloween cocktail is perfect for the fun, vibrant get together, or, you know, hanging out by yourself watching Hocus Pocus!
Black Magic Cocktail
By Elle Talk
I love this cocktail because it is super unique. And, it shimmers. EVEN BETTER. It’s a super fun, simple and shimmery cocktail drink. It would be great for a virtual Halloween happy hour, a full blown party, or a drinking for one session. (Hey, whatever floats your boat).
Candy Corn Martini
By Southern Halloween Queen
A candy corn martini is a must for Halloween cocktails. What I absolutely love about this one is the rim! It’s very festive and fun. And, I like that I don’t have to stress about keeping each layer separated! Lol. Not to mention, if you want to see ANYTHING Halloween, this is the blog for you!
Check out the full recipe here.
Witch’s Brew
By Homemade Hooplah
Witch’s Brew is a great cocktail for a science geek like me. I love Chemistry and all things nerdy science. So the fact this Halloween cocktail is in a scientific vessel, makes it all the better! The bright green color is also a great conversation starter for your party!
Hallowine Sangria
By The Seasoned Mom
Sangria is a good idea 100% of the time. It’s sweet and savory and liked by almost all people! This sangria has orange and black garnishes to keep it on theme with Halloween. (Yeah, that was an unintentional rhyme). Grab some buddies and mix up this sangria recipe for a great Halloween event.
Ghost-tini
By Tonya Staab
File this Halloween cocktail under the cute category. Just like our friend Casper, these ghost-tinis are fun, cute and make for great conversation at your Halloween get together! Get the ghouls together with these martinis! (Man I am full of terrible puns and rhymes today!)
Halloween Skull Cocktail
By Pizzazzerie
Since we’ve already seen the friend ghost cocktail, we can now talk a walk on the dark side! These super creepy Halloween skull cocktails are perfect for a more serious or dedicated horror-fest of a party. Check out the Pizzazzerie blog for the full recipe.
Caramel Apple Cocktail
By Made it with Happy
This Halloween cocktail definitely has amazing presentation! It’s a yummy caramel apple flavor that is served in an actual apple! This would be a great one to serve without alcohol for a kids party, or with the booze for the adult soiree.
Check out the full tutorial here.
Bride of Frankenstein Cocktail
By Pineapple and Coconut
I love the whole mood of this cocktail. First of all, champagne. Gotta love the bubbles! Secondly, the nostalgia. I can’t get enough of old black and white movies, and this tribute cocktail is perfect to pair with any of them really. But, Bride of Frankenstein is a classic!
Candy Corn Vodka Shots
By Sugar and Charm
If you couldn’t tell by now, I like candy corn. That’s why it’s featured twice in this list. But this Halloween cocktail is actually a Halloween shot. And, it definitely wins points for presentation. (I said I was a geek right)? These test tube shots are perfect for a quick easy Halloween drink idea.
Zombie Brain Hemorrhage
By Celebration Generation
This is definitely one of the cooler looking Halloween cocktails. It’s almost three dimensional looking when you complete it. Plus, it has all the typical Halloween vibes with a red and green base. It’s the perfect conversation starter.
Pumpkin Pie Punch
By The Cookie Rookie
Pumpkin Pie Punch has great name thanks to the incredible alliteration. And, who doesn’t love punch! This festive Halloween cocktail is topped with some whipped cream to make it extra sweet! Grab your people and get punching (Halloween punch, not fight punch)!
Creepy Shirley Temples
By Boulder Locavore
This is definitely the most interactive Halloween cocktail on the list. It ends up being a good ole’ fashioned Shirley Temple, but how you get there is different. For an interactive treat at your Halloween party, try out this awesome recipe by Boulder Locavore.
