Nothing compares to a memorable Halloween party–great costumes, ghoulish decor, spooky-themed snacks and beverages–and with Halloween weekend upon us, the stakes have never been higher. If you are hosting or attending a costume party this weekend, we have a BOOtiful recipe that is sure to be the highlight of your spooky event. You’ve heard of an Appletini before, right? Well, this Poison Sour Appletini takes a new and hydrating twist on the classic drink.

The best part about this recipe is that it is just as fun to look at as it is to drink! We strongly recommend the dry ice cubes to really tie the spooky aesthetic together…I mean, it literally looks like it belongs in a witch’s cauldron!

Whether you are taking the kids trick-or-treating or enjoying one too many spooky-themed cocktails this weekend, there is nothing scarier than dehydration, and the best way to combat that is through replenishing your electrolytes. Have a great Halloween weekend and remember to stay safe, stay hydrated, and stay spooky! 🎃
