With Halloween closing in faster than a hung over herd of sorority wildebeests on the omelet line at the dining hall, there is still a lot of prepping to do. Between costumes, figuring out where to go, and how attractive you can still look being a male dressed as Miley Cyrus while hammered out of your mind, figuring out what exactly you are going to drink can get lost in the shuffle. If you are hosting a party, the typical beer and wine supply will not suffice if you want that legendary status. No, you need to get creative, cause people to get in the spooky spirit, and impr
ess your guests to the point where they are begging you to tell them where your humungous brain came up with the ideas. Try out these 5 cocktails to get your Halloween guests blasted.
Cuervo Green Ghoul–
Who doesn’t like the ghoulish atmosphere that Halloween brings on? Take it old school and forget the minion costumes and breaking bad themes. Ghosts and ghouls get lost in the shuffle, so mix up this little gem that will have everyone asking what is in it.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 oz. Jose Cuervo Especial Tequila
1/2 oz. Melon Liqueur
Instructions:
In shot glass, pour Tequila and fill with Melon Liqueur.
Smoking Bamboo–
What is better on Halloween than some spooky fog and mist, especially at night? The answer is not much, and this shot will give you just that. Take literally any ice cold liqueur, and pour it over dry ice that is already stationed in a shot glass and that think will be smoking up more than your ex-girlfriends attempt at roasting a turkey. Very cool special effects that guests will be nervous to try, but love it going down.
Ingredients:
2 oz. Premium Liqueur
Instructions:
Pour over dry ice in a shot glass.
Candy Corn Shooter–
Halloween is notorious for candy corn. Yes, that candy that never goes bad even after sitting in your candy bowl as a kid for 4 straight years. Now that you are boozing instead of just hammering candy, might as well make a shot out of it. It looks like candy corn, and the ladies are sure to appreciate this one.
Ingredients:
2 oz. Banana Liqueur
2 oz. Coconut Rum
2 oz. Cream
2 oz. Orange Curacao
2 oz. 80 Proof Vodka
Grenadine
Instructions:
Combine Vodka and Banana Liqueur into a mixer with ice. Shake and pour into the bottom of the shot glass. Then combine Coconut Rum, Orange Curacao, Cream and a dash of Grenadine (for color). Shake in shaker with ice and gently layer on top using a spoon. Top with whipped cream.
Bloody Brain Shooter–
This will undoubtedly be the hit of the party. These shots will gross out everyone looking at them, but the ones daring enough to try will be rewarded. This looks just like a mad scientist threw brains into a shot glass, so sack up and shoot it down.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 oz chilled vodka
1/2 oz. lime juice
Irish cream
Instructions:
Add chilled vodka and lime juice to a shot glass, then use a straw to drip Irish cream on top. The acidic lime juice will cause the cream to curdle, creating realistic blobs of “brain.” Green Goblin– Along with the ghouls, goblins are a staple of the Halloween season that seems to get lost after the age of 10. Don’t let that happen at your party, and bring the inner green out with this cool looking drink that will remind you of something spooky.
