Green Halloween Cocktail Recipe

Halloween is my favorite holiday. 

The colors are so pretty too – orange pumpkins mixed with red-tinted leaves on brown ground.

And there are jack o’lanterns everywhere!

The there are the fun Halloweenparties, whether they are kid friendly or not, Halloween is a great opportunity to play around with some crazy cocktail recipes. 

Halloween is a perfect time for spooky cocktails.

This Frankenstein drink, made with vodka and fruit juices, will have your guests feeling ready for the long night ahead. 

Why I Love The Frankenstein Drink

This cocktail is fast becoming one of my favorites for Halloween, and for good reason.

The bright green color that gives the drink its name is perfect for wowing guests at Halloween and reminds me of Polyjuice from Harry Potter or a real witches brew. 

This is also a really easy drink to make, requiring four ingredients and little prep work. 

What is in this Green Halloween Cocktail?

First of all, let’s be clear that the Frankenstein Drink is a cocktail that contains alcohol (vodka and Blue Curacao).

It is definitely not a kid-friendly Halloween drink. . 

The alcoholic version of the Witches Brew Punch contains the following:

• Crystal Head Vodka (or other Vodka of your choice)
• Pineapple juice
• Blue Curacao
• Orange Juice

If you haven’t heard of Crystal Head vodka then you are in for a treat.

The neat thing about this vodka is the bottle, of course.

It is a skull head so absolutely perfect for Halloween as it doubles as a cool decoration for your bar or table. 
 

What is Blue Curacao?

Blue Curacao  mixed with fruit juices is what gives this drink its beautiful green color. 

It is a liqueur made with the dried peel of the bitter orange laraha, a citrus fruit, grown on the Dutch island of Curaçao.

What Can You Use Instead Of Blue Curacao? 

If you want the alcoholic content but don’t have any Blue Curacao, you can use a citrus liqueur such as Triple Sec and add a few drops of blue food coloring to your drink. 

What tools do I need to make the Green Halloween Cocktail?

You really don’t need much in order to make this cocktail which makes it perfect for any Halloween party or large gathering when you want to whip them up in minutes.

If you love the glass skull shot glasses I used in the pictures, you can grab them here from Amazon. 

My recipe makes 3 shots making it great for a crowd. 

The only tools you’ll need to make this cocktail are:

• A cocktail shaker 
• A strainer for pouring the drink without the ice. 

Don’t have the tools you need? 

If you don’t have a cocktail shaker, a large mason jar works just as well in a pinch.

Use the mason jar lid or a plate to strain the drink if you don’t own a strainer. 

How To Make The Frankenstein Drink

Step 2: Strain
