It's a terrific choice for both Halloween parties and brunches when served in a glass that has been rinsed with absinthe.

Many cocktail recipes have names derived from eerie nighttime phenomena. Among such, the original zombie—which varies somewhat from the zombie punch—is popular. 

These are classic tropical cocktails loaded with fruit and rum that will keep the celebration going all night.

Frog in a Blender

Certain beverages are more gimmicks than anything else. One of those is the frog in a blender, and this vodka-cranberry slushie is a really great idea. 

To keep the appearance of a witch's brew and preserve all the chunky green lime pieces, the secret is not to blend it as finely as a margarita.

In addition to the ingredients and recipe you follow, the type of glass also determines the appearance and deliciousness of your cocktail. 

However, various types of cocktails will require different glasses, for example, a coupe or martini glass works well with a Collins or Highball glass.
