Looking for a creepy Halloween cocktail? I’m giving the classic margarita an eerie upgrade for my favorite holiday! 

Originated in Mexico, the Margarita is one of the most famous cocktails in the world. With its base, many other variations have been made, such as the one I have for you today: Poisoned Forrest- Blackberry Margarita. I am in no way, shape or form a bartender, but I decided to give this cocktail a go anyways, and it ended up being unlike any other drink that I’ve tasted. This is clearly a different mix than the classics; some might even call it a margarita-mule! 

As the name itself says, this cocktail has blackberries, hence the characteristic color it has. However, it also has rosemary, orange juice, and ginger beer, giving it a very distinctive and original flavor. If you want to surprise your family and friends with a different drink this Halloween, make sure the Poisoned Forrest- Blackberry Margarita is on your list.

Notes:

  • For an alcohol-free version (mocktail), leave the tequila and add another bottle of ginger beer.
  • Alternatively to rosemary, you can use mint or sage.
