We recently added an awesome fire pit area to the side of our barn. It is a great space to hang out under the trees and twinkle lights and watch a movie on the projector screen. As you know, Fall is my favorite time of year and I couldn’t wait to get this area decorated […]

Fang-tastic Cocktail
Just finished up the first season of True Blood on dvd and I am addicted! Also, super excited about New Moon next month. With both of these and Halloween right around the corner, I've got fangs on the brain. This cocktail is perfect for Halloween, True Blood or New Moon parties.
I love Effen Vodka. If you like black cherry flavor without the sweetness you will love it too.
Dracula's Kiss
- 1 oz black cherry vodka (Effen Vodka)
- 1/2 oz grenadine
- cola
- maraschino cherries for garnish
Preparation:
- Coat the bottom of a highball glass with grenadine.
- Add ice and vodka.
- Fill with cola. Garnish with cherries.

Oooh…this looks tasty! My friends and I all love True Blood so this year for Halloween we decided to have a True Blood Themed Party instead of the regular ‘ol Haunted Halloween Party. I’m going to have to make some of these drinks for it!
My friend who’s hosting it got a lot of ideas from Celebrations, if you’re interested in taking a gander. Here’s the URL to the article: http://www.celebrations.com/article/True-Blood-Halloween-Party.
There are some cocktail recipes on there that we’re making for our party as well. Each recipe feature the show’s official drink “Tru Blood.” I’ve tried two already and they were delish!
Thanks for sharing this!
