Hocus Pocus Halloween Cocktail

A deliciously striking hocus pocus cocktail to celebrate the essence of Halloween! This hauntingly beautiful green Halloween cocktail is a twist on a margarita / yellow jacket cocktail. With herby, floral flavors and a touch of sourness, this is exactly what the Sanderson sisters were concocting as their glowy green hocus pocus witches brew!

Hocus Pocus Halloween Cocktail as a flowchart: ingredients enter on the left and merge rightward into each step.
4 ounce jalapeno infused tequila or reposado tequila / mezcal
2 ounce St Germain liqueur
2 ounce green or yellow chartreuse
3 ounce freshly squeezed lime juice
½ ounce blue curacao
crushed ice
chili salt
6 ounce lime soda (optional)

Steps in full

  1. In a cocktail mixing glass, mix the tequila, St Germain liqueur, green chartreuse, and lime juice.
  2. Add a few drops of the blue curacao while stirring until you get the desired green color in the cocktail.
  3. Stir or shake the cocktail to mix. If you're not serving the drink with ice, then add a generous amount of ice to the mixing glass to chill the cocktail.
  4. Rim 2 serving glasses with lime and dip the glasses in the chili salt. Place crushed ice in the glasses. Strain the cocktail into each of the glasses.
  5. Optional - Top with lime soda if you like.
  6. Garnish with a dried lime slice (or fresh lime slice).
