Black Widow Cocktail with Creepy Crawly Spider
In a perfect world we would be able to dangle the plastic spider from the rim of the glass, web style. Slipping the spider around the stem of the glass gives this drink a creepy touch, literally when guests hold the glass stem. Use different spiders for each guest so they can easily remember their glass.
Black Widow
1-1/2 ounce SKYY Infusions Raspberry
1/2 ounce Triple Sec
2 ounces Pomegranate Juice
1/2 ounce Fresh Lemon Juice
Raspberry Syrup – approximately 1/4 ounce or according to preference
Plastic Spider Ring
Place all liquid ingredients into a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake until chilled. Strain into a chilled martini glass. Snip the bottom center part of the spider ring. Place spider around the stem of the glass or slip the cut portion of the ring over the lip of the glass.
Vampire’s Elixir with Sinister Vampire Teeth
Plastic vampire teeth make a fun garnish for this cocktail. These can usually be found in the party favor section of party stores.
Vampire’s Elixir
1-1/2 ounce SKYY Infusions Raspberry
3/4 ounce White Chocolate Liqueur (such as Godiva)
1 ounce Half & Half
Strawberry Syrup
Plastic Vampire Teeth
Drizzle strawberry syrup around the inside rim of a chilled cocktail glass. Set aside. Combine remaining liquids in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake until chilled. Strain into prepared martini glass. Place vampire teeth on rim of glass.
Wicked Witch Apple Punch Bubbling Cauldron
An inexpensive black cauldron and block of dry ice make this punch a party hit. Use gloves when handling the dry ice. Use caution when serving drinks. Make sure no dry ice gets in drinking glasses. Use regular ice in party glasses. For extra menacing effect, purchase plastic bony fingers and place them in glasses for use as a stir stick.

1 – 750ml bottle Sparkling Apple Cider
1 – 64 ounce bottle Cranberry Juice Cocktail
