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.

Tiki takes a trip to Mexico with this riff on a traditional zombie. I've seen this one done by so many people that I don't know the original creator. Play with your spirits to find the right flavor combination for your palette. ¡Salud!

Welcome back to the land of the living (dead)! This hair-of-the-dog cocktail dates back to pre-prohibition times when drinks were specifically crafted and consumed to “raise the drinker from the dead.” May it do the same for you in the trying, modern times.

Another pear-fect Autumn cocktail to help you transition fully into spooky season.

A chai masala-infused Negroni that still runs as red as the Campari in my veins.

This tequila-mezcal potion packs a punch with a sizable dose of bitters. It’s remedy enough to bring anyone back from the dead.

A transformative mix of mezcal, Aperol, and Cardamaro that’s sure to make you howl at the moon. Hopefully your date can run fast…

You can hear voices calling your name—someone is trying to resurrect you—soon you'll be free from the Underworld! But the Queen of the Damned may have other plans for you...

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?

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

Falling Leaves is an autumnal cocktail featuring the season’s most overlooked fruit: Pear!

Ventura Spirits makes the most of Pixie tangerine season with this beautiful citrus liqueur.

While Campari usually takes center stage, for this year's Negroni Week I decided to break down my favorite gins instead.
