Pucker Vodka Blood Sucking Chiller and Dark Magic Martini Cocktails

by Rachel Kuptz

Pucker Vodka has crafted unique cocktails to pair up with this year’s hottest Halloween costume trends.

With the upcoming release of “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1,” who doesn’t want to dress up as love-struck Bella Swan, handsome Edward Cullen and the oh-so-fit Jacob?

Better yet, “Truebies” can take a stab at the characters of HBO’s “True Blood.” Both of these trends go perfectly with the Blood-Sucking Chiller cocktail.

If magic is more your style, J.K. Rowling fans decked out in Harry Potter, Hermione Granger or Lord Voldemort duds can complement costumes with the Dark Magic Martini.

Blood-Sucking Chiller
2 parts Pucker™ Cherry Tease Vodka
2 parts Cranberry Juice
Dash of Lemon Lime Soda
Build over ice and garnish with an apple wedge.

Dark Magic Martini
1 ½ parts Pucker™ Grape Gone Wild Vodka
½ part Triple Sec
¼ part Fresh Lime Juice (2 wedges)
¼ part Simple Syrup
1 part Cranberry Juice
Combine ingredients in 3 piece shaker and shake vigorously to chill. Strain into chilled martini glass and garnish with a lime wedge.
