Candy Corn Old Fashioned
Nostalgia with a Boozy Twist

Infusing whiskey with the iconic candy corn will make you rethink your love-hate relationship with this Halloween staple. It’s the perfect mix of sugar and booze for your crazy costume party.
Witches Brew
A Potion Fit for a Coven
Every Halloween celebration needs a bit of witchcraft, and our Witches Brew is bubbling with magical flavors. This neon green punch is a blend of melon liqueur, fresh citrus, and a touch of mystery. It’s designed to serve a crowd, making it ideal for your Halloween gathering—or for keeping to yourself as you practice your spells. But don’t drink the Midori liqueur straight, unless we double-dare you.
Chocolate Martini
Decadence with a Wicked Twist
If you’re in the mood for something sinfully sweet, the Chocolate Martini is your go-to potion for Halloween indulgence. Rich, velvety, and just a touch dangerous, this cocktail is a grown-up dessert in a glass. Crafted with a mix of vodka, chocolate liqueur, and a hint of cream, the Chocolate Martini is as luxurious as it is decadent. It’s the perfect way to end a dark and stormy night—and hopefully turn that Halloween party into a Valentine’s afterparty!
Pumpkin Pie Spiced Rum
The Ultimate Autumn Cocktail
As Halloween approaches and the air turns crisp, one flavor reigns supreme: pumpkin spice. Love it or merely tolerate it, there’s no denying that pumpkin spice has become the unofficial taste of fall. So why not take that quintessential autumn flavor from your Pumpkin Spiced latte and mix it with something a bit spicier that everyone enjoys—Rum. Introducing the Pumpkin Pie Spiced Rum cocktail, a blend that combines everything cozy about the season with the warming growl of a pirate’s arrrgh.
