This fun and festive witches brew cocktail is just the drink you need to start your next party. It's incredibly easy to make and even easier to drink.
There are 3 different types of alcohol in a witch's brew cocktail: vodka, blue curacao, and Midori. It's a lovely shade of bright green with plenty of citrus flavor and a hint of melon.
🍹 Ingredients
- Vodka - Use your preferred variety of vodka.
- Midori - Midori is a melon liqueur.
- Blue Curacao - Use blue curacao orange liqueur.
- Lemon Juice - I recommend freshly squeezed lemon juice, but the bottled version would work in a pinch.
- Lime Juice - As with the lemon juice, freshly squeezed is best. Use lime wedges for rimming the glasses too.
- Sugar - Rimming sugar is used in any of your favorite colors to make the drink fit your Halloween-themed party or gathering.

🍸 How To Make A Witches Brew Vodka Cocktail
You don't have to do much to make this fun cocktail; combine, stir, and strain. All you need is a home bar kit and a chilled cocktail glass.
This recipe is for one drink, but it's a great base for making a pitcher version to serve a party crowd.
Step 1: Add sugar rim. Rub a lime around the edge of a chilled martini or cocktail glass and garnish the rim with colored rimming sugar (blue, green, red, orange, or black).
Step 2: Stir together the ingredients. Pour all of the ingredients (2 ounces of vodka, ½ ounce of Midori, ¼ ounce of blue curacao, 1 squeeze of lime juice, and 1 squeeze of lemon juice) into a shaker or glass with ice.
Stir for 20-30 seconds until very well chilled.
Step 3: Strain and garnish. Strain into the chilled cocktail glass and garnish with a gummy worm.

💭 Angela's Pro Tips & Notes
- Get creative with the rim. In place of sugar, you may use simple syrup and Halloween-colored sprinkles to garnish the rim of your cocktail glass.
- Try an orange twist as a garnish. If you don't have a gummy worm, an orange twist makes a beautiful garnish.
- Make it carbonated. If you prefer your drink with carbonation, add a splash of Sprite.
- Upgrade your drink with some smoke. A cube of dry ice will make your cocktail smoke as if it came straight out of a cauldron.
