Black Cat Martini

Black Cat Martini— Perfect for Halloween vibes or anytime you want a bold, dark, or gothic looking drink that's spooky and fun. It’s dark, slightly sweet, fruity, and mysterious—just like a black cat sneaking around at night.

I have a few Halloween cocktails on this site that people love for Halloween and I have been trying to come up with other Halloween cocktails of my own. This drink only requires 2 simple ingredients and we love 2 ingredients here like this Raspberry Lemonade Cocktail.

Chambord is a raspberry flavored vodka and looks black already so I just added in some diet coke to it and it's like a classy version of Rum and Coke for Halloween that's also very spooky looking and looks like a black cat!

Dark & Decadent Sweet Treats to Pair With

• Dubai Chocolate Dates – Always a win
• Peanut Butter Brownie Pizza – Rich, dark, and moody
• Mummy Truffles
• Mini cheesecakes or cheesecake bites or Mini Oreo Cheesecakes – Try blackberry swirl for a themed twist

And there you have it. If you do food photography like I do some of the Halloween props or decorations are fun to use in photos like this drink picture. Enjoy!

Bartending Tips for Beginners 

• Always keep 6 basic liquors stocked in your bar. Those are Vodka, Whiskey, Rum, Tequila, Gin, and Brandy. 
• Different types of liqueurs are also great to have for a well stocked bar. Examples of creme based liqueurs are Rumchata, Kauhula,  or Irish Cream 
• Essential mixers to keep on hand would be ginger beer, different flavored juices, or or sodas like Sprite and Club. 
• Simple syrups are just equal parts sugar and water and you can add whatever extract flavoring you want to them. 
• Of course, always keep a variety of different cocktail glasses serving and ice on hand.
