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.
You can stream Universal’s The Mummy, 1932, for free on Prime Video, with a Prime subscription.
Why did the mummy go to the bar? Because he needed to unwind!
Do you ever wonder what mummies dream about during their long dust naps? As it turns out, the answer is… bananas! At least, that’s what’s in A Mummy’s Dream.
A Mummy’s Dream
INGREDIENTS:
2 Frozen Bananas (Fresh bananas can also be used)
1 cup whipped cream
1 cup ice 1 1/2 oz Kahlúa coffee liqueur 1 oz vodka 1 oz spiced rum 1/2 oz cream of coconut 2-3 oz pineapple juice
Throw everything in the blender for 2 minutes, and voila, A Mummy’s Dream.

A Mummy’s Dream is a sweeter, frozen version of a Dirty Monkey (or Dirty Banana). It comes out thick like a shake. This is highly modifiable recipe, according to how much sweetness or banana flavoring you prefer.
