A mezcal mai tai riff so memorable it will haunt you.

This one’s a little corny…

There’s nothing wicked about a pineapple-bourbon-aperol combo except how easily you’ll guzzle it down. It’s sinfully good.

Having just returned from Oaxaca with Cocktail Camera and High-Proof Preacher, I thought it was fitting to include one of his original cocktails in my Halloween series. Floating along a hellish lava river is: Cinnamon for my demons!

Halloween cocktails that won't rot your teeth (but might rot your brain) continues with one that might actually rot your teeth. With Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup-infused bourbon and salted caramel in the mix, this might be the most candy-forward cocktail on my list.

Growing up in the 80s, nothing was scarier than basic children's movies and TV programming. So I figured why not create a drink based on a core trauma memory from The NeverEnding Story. RIP Artex.

Based on the Green Ghost of the 1937 Café Royal Cocktail Book Coronation Edition, which says this cocktail was "invented by J. B. Hurrell." It's supposed to be made with green chartreuse, but I don't have any so I used @luxardoofficial Santo Herbal Liqueur.

Halloween cocktails that won't rot your teeth (but might rot your brain), featuring the Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! cocktail. It’s sweet and bubbly, dominated by strawberry with a hint of absinthe.

A bubbly concoction that melds luscious black currant, reposado tequila, and bright ginger—perfect for a hot walk through the Underworld.

In the Underworld, your soul is valuable currency—don't trade it carelessly, no matter how parched you may be.

Grab two coins for the ferryman, bid farewell to the mortal coil, and descend into the fiery pit along the River Styx. Coffee, chocolate, and allspice mingle to bring comfort to the souls awaiting Hades' judgment.

This popular classic cocktail has been around since the 1940s, and unlike other cocktails that have their moment in the sun then disappear, the Obituary is so good that it will never have its namesake written about it.

Another riff-on-a-classic, the Undead Gentleman is a strong tiki cocktail that’s perfect for your next Halloween party. But beware: too many will knock you dead on your ass.

A criminally easy cocktail to make, In Cold Blood balances bitterness with notes of sweet and salty—all the characteristics of your favorite villain or serial killer.

What’s in the box?! A delicious cocktail, that’s what! Seven Sins is a perfect Halloween party drink, one which rejects the typical holiday-spice ingredients without ostracizing them completely.

This Halloween-coded pumpkin colada comes from the Brooklyn bar Leyenda and features Brazil's favorite spirit, cachaça.

The original Sleepy Hollow cocktail dates back to the 1930s and features bright apricot and zesty mint. It tastes like fall smells—overripe stone fruit on the ground, fresh pine wafting on a crisp breeze—I wonder where that foggy tunnel of trees leads?

A chocolate chip banana bread old fashioned. Because baked goods make for fantastic cocktail inspiration!

Hang out with your wang out—it’s time to have a drink with the ghost of Black’s Beach.

A pumpkin spice old fashioned featuring homemade pumpkin spice syrup that’s so rich and spicy, you’ll never want to cue up at Starbucks again.
