We all know Halloween is really about 3 things: dressing up in the perfect costume, experiencing anything spooky, and drinking at Halloween parties (if you're of legal age, of course). So why not combine 2/3?
I'm going to give you 3 spooky alcoholic drink recipes to make for your friends--or for yourself, I don't judge here--this Halloween. And let me tell you--they're so good, cheap, and easy that it's scary.
Caramel Apple Sangria
- Prep Time:5 mins
- Cook Time:2 mins
- Total Time:7 mins
- Servings:10
- Easy
- 1 750 ml bottle Pinot Grigio
- 1 cup caramel flavored vodka
- 6 cups apple cider
- 2 medium apples cored and chopped
Ingredients
This recipe tastes like an adult caramel apple that includes fun fall colors. This is perhaps the easiest of the recipes--you just gotta dump it all together.
All you have to do is stir the wine, apple cider, and vodka together in a large pitcher. Add the apples either to each individual glass or just throw them in the pitcher as well. Now you have a crisp, delicious, and festive drink that everyone will love.

Witch's Brew Cocktail
- Prep Time:1 min
- Cook Time:10 mins
- Total Time:11 mins
- Servings:14
- Easy
- 1 6 oz package lime gelatin
- 2 cups boiling water
- 3 cups chilled pineapple juice
- 1 2 liter bottle lemon-lime soda
- 2 cups chilled vodka
Ingredients
This drink has a few more steps than the sangria, but it's still super easy and just as festive-looking.
You're going to pour the gelatin mix into a large bowl, and slowly stir in boiling water. Stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Let it cool before you stir in the rest of the ingredients, and ta-da! Now you have a cocktail that even the Sanderson sisters would approve of.
#SpoonTip: If you pour the drink into an ice tray and let it freeze overnight, it also turns into a deliciously boo-ze frozen treat
Final Result:

Candy Corn Punch
- Prep Time:1 min
- Cook Time:2 mins
- Total Time:3 mins
- Servings:1
- Easy
- 1/3 the glass pineapple chunks
- 1/3 the glass orange soda
- 1 shot vodka
- dollop whipped cream
- candy corn
Ingredients
Another easy drink and perhaps the one with the cutest presentation, I give you: candy corn punch.
You just have to fill up 1/3 of the glass with pineapple chunks, pour in the shot of vodka, and then fill up the rest of the glass with orange soda. Finish it off with a dollop of whipped cream and some candy corn sprinkled on top. Then you're left with a drink that (vaguely) resembles the appearance of candy corn and tastes just as sweet and delicious.
Final Result:

There you have it. 3 spooky boo-ze recipes to satisfy your inner Halloween-lover. Whether you make them just for yourself or for your coven, they'll be sure to make you scream.
