Hey, Reader!

Halloween is just one day away and whether you're all-in for spooky season or prefer pumpkins to poltergeists, one thing I think most of us enjoy is the candy!

There's just something about the assortment of treats that takes me back to my childhood. I was clearly a future foodie in the making because I got such satisfaction out of dumping out a bag of colorful, sugary loot all over our living room floor just to see what all I picked up!

But why let kids have all the fun this week?! These candy-inspired drinks are here to satisfy your sweet tooth, no trick-or-treating required!

tootsie roll cocktail

You'll have to try it for yourself, but I promise this drink tastes just like its namesake! Just two ingredients means the tootsie roll cocktail comes together easily for a fizzy, fun drink. The shot version would be extra fun for parties!

drunken gummies

I love a treat that makes a big impact and drunken gummies definitely do! Opt for vodka gummy worms for a spooky Halloween treat (they make a great garnish for your creepy crawly cocktails).

candy corn vodka

Love it or not, candy corn is a seasonal icon. Capture its color and flavor when you infuse it into vodka for shooters and drinks. It would also work for jello shots!

mad scientist cocktails

Skittles-infused vodka gives mad scientist cocktails their bright and creepy colors! Add a splash of soda and serve them up in beakers with dry ice for a truly impressive presentation.

caramel apple mimosas

If you've always dreamed of getting a caramel apple while trick-or-treating, this one's for you! This sweet, bubbly libation has the iconic flavors of this sweet thanks to caramel vodka and apple cider.

More of a chocolate fan? These Peanut Butter Cup Shots are hard to beat!

I can't wait to hear which of these is your favorite. Hit 'reply' and let me know!

Happy Halloween!
