Hallow’s Eve Happy Hour

Samhain and halloween is right around the corner, and witch or not – we could all use a little magic this year. I’ve crafted 4 seasonal, magically inspired beverages (in addition to the ones in my book WitchCraft Cocktails), to assist your celebrations, whatever they may be. There’s no reason why you shouldn’t celebrate at home with some delicious halloween cocktails! 

A Bit About Samhain

Samhain is the celebration of the third and final harvest of the year, a significant marker of descending into the colder winter months, and all life retreating inside. Culture’s across the northern hemisphere celebrate and worship the dead around October 31st, as they give thanks for the bounty and prepare for the harsher months. Honoring one’s ancestry can be a complicated concept for some – but fret not, this can also be a great time for honoring your chosen family and friends, as well as lineages, paths and archetypes you may have chosen to walk and embody in this lifetime. Or perhaps you can use the time to even honoring future generations, or the ancestry of the earth herself. In giving thanks at this time, you can really delve into healing generational patterns, if you allow yourself to dip deep enough.

If you have my book WitchCraft Cocktails, there are certain drinks I would highly recommend:

• Persephone’s Descent for a delicious pomegranate margarita variation, for wisdom, divination, and introspection upon our shadow selves and we descent into the darker months of the year

• The Reaper for a mulled vine variation specifically aligned to honor the dead and for psychic ability.

• Although I include a pumpkin martini here, my favorite pumpkin drink is the Prosperous Pumpkin in the book, which makes the perfect fall desert beverage for abundance and healing

• The Witch’s Cauldron is a great choice, individually, or preached and served as a punch for blessings to all who enjoy it (& can be served with a bit of dry ice perhaps – just look up proper cautions around dry ice and do not touch it or drink the concoction until it is done smoking. Again – research).

And many more! But here are four new drinks I crafted, just for you 😉

You can listen to me talk about and walk you through these four concoctions below, on Uncorked Corner.
