Hey, Reader!

Halloween is just days 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 shots

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-sized drink.

drunken gummies

I love a treat that makes a big impact and drunken gummies definitely do! Vodka gummy worms make for a spooky Halloween treat, or up the spooky factor as a garnish for your creepy crawly cocktails.

peanut butter cup shots

Chocolate lovers, this one is for you! A creamy blend of peanut butter whiskey and rich crème de cacao perfectly captures the flavors of your favorite candy.

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 these 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.

I hope you find one of these satisfies your sweet tooth!

Cheers!

Susannah
