Scary but delicious Halloween cocktails you can make at home

Top Halloween Party Cocktails

Are you throwing a party at home for this year’s Halloween? Looking for some unique food and drinks in the spirit of the holidays in order to keep your guests entertained and make your party truly engaging? Here are a few ideas for scary Halloween cocktails you can prepare to make your party stand out.

1. Mud punch with scary details

Mud punch is a fairly simple cocktail that you can make at home for pretty much any occasion. For this cocktail, you are going to need:

700 ml Vodka
1 liter vanilla ice cream
2 liters orange juice
2 glasses of cherries

The punch is really very simple and when gives it a kind of scary look to it. Decorate it further by adding some Halloween gums which can usually be bought during the Halloween season and you will have yourself a true witches potion that people might even be scared to try. The extra kick of the vodka will definitely make it a real party starter.

2. Bloody Mary – A vampire drink

Bloody Mary is a classic among cocktails and when it’s time for Halloween, it becomes much more interesting. The cocktail has that real bloody look to it and it will definitely add to the atmosphere to your party when you have costumed vampires walking around drinking glasses of what appears to be real human blood.
For the Bloody Mary you need:

1 Lemon
2 liters tomato juice
5 liters Vodka
A few drops of Worchester
A few drops of Tabasco
6 slices of bacon
Crushed ice

3. Mikoko Cooler – Cool off the atmosphere

Mikoko cooler is a cocktail for all parties and holidays, including Halloween. With its green color, it resembles something a witch may have concocted in her brewing pot, and its great refreshing taste fits perfectly when the atmosphere gets really heated.
For a Mikoko Cooler you need:

500ml coconut milk
120g coconut cream
120ml woodruff syrup
60ml lime juice
Ice cubes

Mix it all together in a big bowl, as there is no need for any special preparation. The coconut flavor in the cocktail and the cooling properties of the ice make this a perfect cocktail to keep in the fridge and bring out once the atmosphere has reached its peak.

4. Witch Potion – The real Halloween drink

The ultimate Halloween drink, Witch Potion is the exact kind of cocktail people may believe is actually magical. This cocktail has a red color and you can add all sorts of little details to make it look even scarier. For the Witch Potion you need:

8 tablespoons red vodka
4 tablespoons lime juice
400ml red berries juice of choice

You can choose to use any juice, although cranberry is commonly used for the Witch Potion. This drink is very tasty, packs a decent punch and if you add some gum with scary shapes or some green ice cubes, it can be even more intimidating.

The morning after

Halloween parties can be a real blast and the main downside is that the morning after, everyone wakes up with a massive hangover. Cocktails tend to give you the worst hangovers ever, so make sure that you are well prepared and you know how to cure them.
We recommend having some Hangover Aid on hand in order to make the nasty hangover go away. In fact, if you want to really make your guests feel good, a great idea would be to hand out small bags of Hangover Aid to all of them so they can all recover as fast as possible the next day.
Have a great party and remember that the hangover will come, so be well prepared for it!
