Happy almost Halloween! I’m the first to admit that i’m a sucker for holidays, and Halloween is no different. I love decorating my whole house and coming up with festive cocktails to celebrate the season. That’s why i’m so excited to share this adorable Halloween bar and a KILLER Blood Red Vodka Cocktail today!
Growing up, my mom had the BEST halloween decorations. We always threw parties, so she decorated our entire house with witches, cobwebs, pumpkins and more. I definitely got my love of decorating from her, and despite having no kids to decorate for, Jordon and I get really into the Holiday. Plus, we use it as an excuse to have friends over and throw one heck of a party.
I bought most of these decorations at Target and HomeGoods. I tried to keep things classic and timeless, which metallic pumpkins, tool, bats and metal skulls. But, my favorite decoration this year is this adorable “more boos please” sign. And, I got it for just $3.00 in the target dollar section. If you know where to shop, it’s so easy to find affordable pieces that you can bring out year after year. Now, on to my blood red vodka cocktail – you’re going to love this one!
- 1 oz vodka
- 4 oz cranberry juice cocktail
- Dash of club soda
- Ice
- Cranberries for Garnish
- Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker and shake.
- Pour in a martini glass over ice and serve.
That’s it! This may be one of the simplest concoctions i’ve come up with, but it’s oh so delicious. I added these cute bat clips to make them just a bit more festive, and love the way they turned out. But, you could also garnish with some cranberries if you’re looking for something a bit more simply.
Isn’t it fun? Plus, it’s sure to have ghosts and ghouls dancing all evening long. If you try it out this weekend, make sure to let me know how you like it in the comments below.
Happy Halloween, friends!
XO,
K
