There's a lot of ways to celebrate Halloween. Some people go all out with a big spooky party while others prefer to stay in and watch a scary movie. And of course, there's trick-or-treating! Regardless of which way you prefer to spend the holiday, it's a great excuse to eat a bunch of candy and shake up a fun drink. After all, nothing will get you in the spirit of Halloween quite like some boozy beverages. That’s why you’ll love this list of frightfully refreshing Halloween drinks.
Here, you’ll find apple cider drinks, seasonal pumpkin cocktails and even cozy warm cocktails, like Ree Drummond's cranberry mulled wine. The pomegranate margaritas are blood red, and the energizing espresso martini will help you stay awake for fright night. Of course, if a big party is on the agenda, there's plenty of batch cocktails perfect for a crowd. Think: eerie elixirs such as red sangria and spiked cider.
For those who have sweets on their mind, skip the bowl of candy and blend up a chocolate martini or pumpkin pie milkshake. Boozy and frozen drinks are such a treat! You'll even find a few mocktail recipes for kids at the party, including a few Halloween punches. And if you really want to make things spooky on Halloween, you can even try dry ice cocktails to add some extra magic to the night!
Apple Cider Margarita
This seasonal cocktail is made with apple cider, tequila, and a splash of soda water for a little fizz. But it's the sweet apple pie spice rim that really makes it special!
