Serve it at a ghosting drop-off, pre-trick-or-treat happy hour, or as the star of your haunted soirée. Because this year? The grown-ups get the good treats. 👻🍸
Sip if you dare…

Shake up your Halloween with a citrusy martini that’s just for the adults — no tricks, all treat.
Ingredients
- 2 oz vodka
- 1 oz triple sec or orange liqueur
- 1 oz fresh orange juice
- ½ oz lemon juice
- ¼ oz simple syrup
-
½ tsp Orange Olive Oil
-
½ tsp Dark Chocolate Aged Balsamic Vinegar
- Ice cubes
- Optional: orange zest or black sugar for rimming
- Optional Halloween garnish (bat cutouts, orange twist)
Directions
- Rim your martini glass with black sugar or orange zest, if desired. Set aside.
- In a cocktail shaker, combine vodka, triple sec, orange juice, lemon juice, simple syrup, and Navel Orange Olive Oil.
- Add a handful of ice and shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds until chilled.
- Strain into the prepared martini glass.

Recipe Note

- Swap vodka for tequila for a more spirited party vibe.
- Add dry ice for a cauldron-like smoky effect (safety first!).
