Spooky Sips for Halloween
This year, Halloween is on a Saturday. Prime spirits time.
Below find four of our favorite craft spirits to help set the Halloween mood.
Compass Box Whisky - The Peat Monster |
St. George Spirits - Absinthe Verte |
It had to be the Peat Monster. Just look at that ghoulish face on the label. Savor the monstrous smokiness of this top-quality Scotch for a delicious Halloween treat. How To Enjoy: Pour yourself a dram and sip away! |
A serious contender for most essential Halloween spirit, not only because of its ghoulish green color. Many of the classic Absinthe cocktails fit right in on a frightful night: consider Death in the Afternoon and The Corpse Reviver #2. How To Enjoy: Experience a Death in the Afternoon with one part Absinthe to four parts dry bubbly. |
Corsair Distillery - Ryemageddon |
All Points West Distillery - Kill Van Kull Single Pot Still Rum
|
Ryemagedon is your must-have whiskey for any apocalyptic-themed Halloween eve. Rye-ding out the end times is the only way to go. How To Enjoy: Make the bracing Brain Duster. It's equal parts rye, absinthe, and Italian vermouth. Like a Manhattan with extra oomph. |
Enjoy this wholly original rum with a scary sounding name: Kill Van Kull. (Though to be fair, it's named after a tidal strait between New York & New Jersey). How To Enjoy: Make a Deadly Dark & Stormy by adding 1/4 ounce Luxardo Maraschino Liqueur to the traditional lime, ginger, beer, and dark rum drink. |
