I recommend you consider the number of people you will be serving and the space you have for storing pre-made drinks.

Regardless of what logistics dictate, here you’ll find great options for party punch bowls, individual drink recipes, and more. 

For your convenience, I’ve divided this list of Halloween drink recipes between non-alcoholic drinks for kids and adults who are abstaining and alcoholic drinks for adults who are not abstaining. 

In addition to finding a delicious recipe, be sure to take note of the way each recipe uses props. Such as beakers, gummy candies, non-surgical syringes, and black light.

With the right props and garnishes, and a little imagination a Christmas drink could pretty easily be transformed into a spooky cocktail.

I also have some great, printable apothecary labels that can take your drinks to the next level! Be sure to check them out.
