Halloween Cocktail Decorations

  • Bloody eye
  • Single hand in punch bowl
  • Bloody smudges
  • Halloween cocktail appearances

Bloody Eye

A cocktail decoration in the form of a bloody eye looks creepy, but simple. We take the radish and peel the skin so that red veins remain on a white background. Cut the middle to the size of Halloween Cocktails.

We stuff the olive with red pepper or blueberries. We collect our bloody eye: insert the olive into the radish and prick this structure on a cocktail stick.

You can also make a wonderful believable eye from the Chinese lychee fruit: dry the lychee fruit, fill it with bright red jam, insert the blueberry and prick it on a straw or cocktail. These “eyes” can be frozen in ice tins – just fill them with water and you will have eerie ice cubes in glasses.

Hand In A Bowl With Punch

Ice in the form of a cut off hand in a bowl with a punch – how do you like this surprise? Your guests will appreciate it! Take a cleanly washed glove and fill it with water or juice. Remember that not all juices freeze! Put the filled glove in the freezer.

Before removing the “hand” from the glove, dip it in boiling water for a few seconds. In ice cubes you can freeze gelatin worms and spiders, you get great ice for witch drinks!

Braiding a glass with a drink with a disgusting web is also easy. Melt the bitter chocolate in milk or cream, type it into a disposable syringe and quickly apply a spider web pattern to the inside of the glass. It is clear that the drink should be transparent.

Bloody smudges

Well, the classic of the genre – bloody smudges – is generally simple. Mix the bright red Halloween Cocktails with opaque juice and swollen gelatin, warm until the gelatin dissolves and cool slightly. Dip the edges of the glasses in the resulting “blood” and quickly turn them over so that drops drip picturesquely on the glass. To increase the similarity, place a few bruises on the walls of the glasses and put the glasses in the refrigerator.

Bright red grenadine syrup will help you turn even an ordinary glass of vodka into a vampire drink: pour grenadine into the bottom of the glass, put ice and gently pour vodka to keep the grenadine at the bottom.

Halloween cocktail appearance

Halloween cocktails must certainly be incredible colors! Absinthe, which when mixed with water gives a cloudy green color, liquors of all shades of red, blue “Hypnotic”, and also black vodka, is very useful. Black vodka is generally a horror movie party finder. Even the classic “Bloody Mary” with black vodka looks completely different on Halloween.

Disgusting in appearance and delicious in taste is a cocktail that looks like brains in a glass. It is also easy to make: it is necessary to carefully add Bailey’s liqueur to any strong alcoholic beverage.

This is done with the help of a cocktail tube – we collect the liquor into the tube, pinch it with a finger so that the liquor does not flow out, and release it into a glass with vodka or gin. At the same time, the liqueur curls into balls. If the trick has not gone out, then drink the failed cocktail and start over.

Well, we figured out the decoration, it’s up to the recipes. Halloween cocktails are mostly simple and do not require mastery of the shaker. You will be able to pour the layers of the cocktail without mixing – excellent!
