Halloween is fast approaching. It's easy to embrace the ghoulish side of the month with these scary good, locally made spooky spirits.
Although it’s a menu staple at Renata’s Hearth (RenatasHearth.com) year-round, the Los Muertos conjures Halloween vibes with its smokey and unique presentation. The drink is made with serrano-infused reposado tequila, activated charcoal, agave, lime juice, black lava salt, and smoke.
At STK Steakhouse (STKSteakhouse.com), order the Green Goblin, made with vodka, lime juice, simple syrup, basil leaves, and jalapeño slices.
Meanwhile, Blue Clover Distillery (BlueCloverDistillery.com) kicks off the season with the Halloween-inspired drink, The Blue Goblet. Handmade Blue Clover Vodka makes this cauldron bubble with blue curaçao and lemon juice, finished off with a blood-red sugar rim.
Double, double, toil and trouble—this ghoulish cocktail is made to look like a witch’s brew. With a deep purple coloring perfect for the spooky season, the Violette cocktail from The Sicilian Butcher (TheSicilianButcher.com) is made with butterfly pea flower italicus, cocchi americano, apricot liqueur, hibiscus, and acai bitters.
