Similarly to party food in general, Halloween party recipes should be easy to prepare and impressively garnished. Simple and light dishes, appetizers and desserts, but atmospherically arranged and decorated, spread a good mood. The visual appeal is particularly important for themed events and events. We have put together a menu for you and offer you four simple ideas that would certainly add to the overall fun of the evening.
Vampire Cocktail:
- 500 milliliters of vodka with vanilla or cherry flavor
- 236 milliliters of lime juice
- 180 milliliters of cranberry juice
- 75 milliliters of pomegranate liqueur
- 7up, Sprite or carbonated mineral water
- fresh cherries, without stones or cocktail cherries
To garnish, take martini or wine glasses and drip strawberry or raspberry syrup, mainly the syrup is red, on the edge of the glass and leave them in the fridge. ObtainVampire teeth to decorateand remove the glasses just before serving.
For an even more spooky effect, get dry ice and drop some pieces of drink into it. It will fog effectively.
Another creative idea would be to get some gummy candies, such as eyes, vampire fangs, frogs, spiders and other insects. Do not let them float in the liquid for too long as they will dissolve more quickly due to the alcohol in the drink
Guacamole recipe:
- 2 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted
- 6 cherry tomatoes or fewer smaller tomatoes cut into cubes
- Juice of 1/4 lemon
- ¼ cup chopped cilantro
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Dessert comes last and it should be easy to digest. A simple dessert is aromatic cooked pears.
Ingredients:
- 4 pears (ripe but not overly ripe)
- apple juice
- Red grape juice
- Sultanas or raisins
- Almonds (slivered)
- Cinnamon
- cloves
- Vanilla extract
Peel the pears and place them in a pot. Shake in enough apple juice to cover the fruit and add the spices. Bring the liquid to the boil and let the pears simmer for 15-20 minutes. Remove the pears and return the syrup to the heat to thicken. They also let the red juice boil until its consistency becomes similar to blood. Create the spooky faces of the ghost pears using slivered almonds, raisins and cloves.
