Halloween is coming and as always the children are super excited, but who said that Halloween just had to be for the children?

Over at 31Dover they’ve nominated themselves the unofficial sponsors of Halloween this year, and with so many incredible themed bottles it’s not hard to understand why. So if you’re having a grown-up Halloween party or even just fancy some spooky cocktails once you’ve put your little witches and wizards, ghosts and ghouls to sleep, then you need 31Dover in your life.

What’s your favourite cocktail?

What about whipping up some of your favourites with a devilishly good Halloween twist?

True Death

1 Lime Wedge
1½  shots of Tequila
1 tsp Grenadine
1 tsp Crème de Cassis
topped up with orange juice

Halloween cocktail

Start by chilling your cocktail glass by putting it in the freezer. Now pour the tequila and orange juice into a cocktail shaker and squeeze the juice from the lime on top. Add ice and shake until well chilled. Strain into the chilled glass. Spoon the grenadine down the side of the glass and let it sink to the bottom. Do the same with the crème de cassis. Serve right away.

Vampire’s Kiss

25ml blackberry syrup
45ml vodka
60ml cranberry juice

Combine ingredients in a shaker filled with ice cubes. Shake vigorously and pour into a glass. Serve.

Witches’ Brew

  21. When I was at University we formed the Tequila Society – more for political purposes than fun, but we had many functions and parties. Since then my favourite is a Tequila Sunrise
