Here are three spooky drinks to try with your coven or pals this Halloween. These are just the basics so feel free to make your own twists and magical additions to these recipes. I recommend you go out to a dollar store and get gummy eyeballs, candy corn or other candies to drop inside if you’re trying to really ~spook~ your guests. But please, no poison. That’s fatal and illegal.
(All recipes produce one drink; multiply accordingly with proper amount of cocktail glasses to reach desired amount).
