Terrifying Tipples

  • October 3, 2019
  • FLMag Staff
You’ve got the candy for the kiddoes, but do you need some grown-up beverages for your Halloween party? Follow us as we cut eyeholes in the bedsheets and head to the bar.

Candy Corn Martini

Say “candy corn martini” and you’ll get one of two reactions. Some people will find it a fun Halloween treat. Others will have to go off to be violently ill. This drink is for the first group. You need: candy corn (duh), vodka, orange liqueur and lemon juice. First, you put the candy corn in the vodka. Some will tell you they need to sit like that for a week; others will say a couple hours is good. Guess it depends on how much you want your vodka to taste like candy corn. When you’re done infusing, strain the vodka. Add 3½ to 4 oz of vodka to 1½ oz of orange liqueur and the juice of half a lemon. For a real party, some people put whipped cream on top.


Bloody Sunrise

Basically, this is just a tequila sunrise where, instead of thoroughly mixing in the grenadine, you just pop it on top and let it slowly trickle down like so much B-movie blood. Over ice, pour 1½ parts tequila, 1 part orange liqueur, an ounce of orange juice and stir. Then add the grenadine to the top and let the horror commence.


Funky Buddha Last Snow

Not everybody wants a cocktail, we get that. Some people want a beer. But perhaps … a spooky beer? Last Snow’s a seasonal release from the Oakland Park beer wizards over at Funky Buddha; it’s a black-as-the-night coffee porter that, because this is Florida, also has notes of coconut.


Dark n’ Stormy

It was a dark and stormy … cocktail. Made famous by Bermuda’s Gosling’s Rum, this is a fairly straightforward highball drink. There are many different recipes out there; the official Gosling’s one calls for 1.5 oz of Gosling’s Black Seal Rum and a can of Gosling’s Stormy Ginger Beer. You fill a tall glass with ice, then add 4 to 5 oz of the ginger beer, then the rum. and top with Gosling’s Black Seal Rum. Perfect for wearing all black and staring out to sea in search of your One True Love.
