Boozy Cocktails From Halloween Candy

October 31, 2016 By Dayton Most Metro

You did all that work, bought the candy, opened the door for all the little tykes ringing your bell,  told them all how adorable they where (even if you couldn’t figure out what half of them were dressed as) and now it’s time to enjoy some of that candy in some adult boo-zy treats!  Cheers!

Almond Joy Cocktail

almond-joy-cocktail
1 ounce Malibu Rum
1 ounce Amaretto or almond-flavored liqueur
1 ounce creme de cacao
2 ounces half and half (or 1 ounce cream and 1 ounce whole milk)
Almond Joy, for garnish
Coconut shavings, for garnish

Directions:

  1. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Combine Malibu Rum, Amaretto, creme de cacao, and half and half. Cover and shake until well chilled.
  2. Strain into a martini glass. Use a Microplane or cheese grater to garnish with Almond Joy shavings. Sprinkle a pinch of coconut on top.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Martini

  • 1.5 oz. vodka
  • 1 oz. Godiva liqueur
  • ½ oz. white Cream de Cacao
  • 1 oz. peanut butter simple syrup
  • Garnish: Reese’s peanut butter cup
For the simple syrup
  • 1 C. sugar
  • 1 C. water
  • ½ C. creamy peanut butter

Make the simple syrup by combing sugar, water and peanut butter in small saucepan. Bring to boil, reduce and simmer a few minutes. Set aside and let cool. Store in refrigerator.

For the martini, combine ingredients in cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake well and strain in a chilled martini glass. Garnish with Reeses peanut butter cup.

 

Smarties Mojito07-halloween-candy-cocktails

10 mint leaves
3 ounces Smarties Infused Vodka
1 ounce freshly squeezed lime juice
1 ounce simple syrup
3 rolls of Smarties
Club soda
Ice

Combine mint leaves, lime juice, simple syrup and two rolls of Smarties in a highball glass and muddle ingredients together. Add Smarties Infused Vodka and stir. Add crushed ice, top off with club soda and add a sprinkling of remaining Smarties.

 

Tootsie Roll Martini54f669834804f_-_tootsie-roll-martini-lynsey-lous-s2

Ingredients

3 oz. Vodka
1/2 oz. Chocolate Liqueur
1/2 oz. Grand Marnier

Instructions

Shake with cracked ice and strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with a tootsie roll

M&M ShooterM&Ms

Sometimes you don’t want a full drink; that’s when a shooter is perfect. Same goes for chocolate – sometimes you don’t want a full bar of chocolate, but a couple of M&Ms really hit the spot. That’s why it’s only natural that this recipe involves a shooter AND M&Ms. You’re welcome.

  • Mix together 1/2 oz. Frangelico (hazelnut liqueur) and 1/2 oz. Creme de Cacao.
  • Serve in a shot glass and top with whipped cream and garnish with M&Ms.
