Happy Friday! It’s the return of Friday Fright Nightcaps! Every Friday in October, I post a drink recipe in honor of one of my favorite Universal classic monsters movies. This week is a little concoction called Mummy’s Revival.
I’ll be honest, this recipe is a little sweet. I’m not sure if it’s the coffee or the sugar that can wake the dead, but this is a nice drink to come home to.
Ingredients:
.05 oz -1 oz espresso or dark coffee
1 oz. vodka
1 oz Kahlua
1 oz Bailey’s S’mores or Pumpkin Spice
Garnish:
Chocolate Syrup
Whipped cream for topping
Mixing Instructions:
Mix ingredients well into a shaker. Next, pour into a glass coated with chocolate syrup. Top with whipped cream.
If it’s too sweet, try 1 oz of espresso over coffee. Best when served chilled.

It’s Frankenstein Friday! Last day in October is always dedicated to the mad scientist and his big badass monster. Today, we toast Mary Shelley’s brilliant gothic horror with a variation of a sour-apple vodka martini, called Frankenstein’s Martini.
INGREDIENTS:
2 oz sour apple mix
2 oz vodka
1 oz pineapple juice
Splash of real lime juice
Mix all items well in a cocktail shaker and pour over ice, or not. I like my cocktails chilled like the dead.
I wish I knew a potion to instantly fill my empty bottles. I drank the last of my sour apple mix experimenting on this recipe!
