In honour of this being October and All Hallow’s Eve coming up quick I thought I would share some special cocktails, Halloween such a fun time of year. Offering opportunity to create creepy foods, spooky drinks and witchy crafts.Sometimes the drinks are of our own concoction and sometimes we are inspired by Pinterest. Today I am sharing a fun Vampire Cocktail. The Blood Sucker is perfect for the sophisticated palette.

Blood Sucker
This is a simple cocktail but it does require a little bit of patience. Creating the blood look requires a small bit of skill and a steady hand. Plus no stirring, that’s the part that kills me.
Pour rum, Cointreau and juice into a shaker with ice. Shake mixture, then pour into a fun cocktail glass. Dip the end of a drinking straw into the berry puree, hold the tip of your finger over the other end and use the straw to squirt puree into the bottom half-inch of the drink, where it will sink in red blobs. Do not stir.
