Charleston is getting into the spooky spirit this October, and if you’re a lover of all things Halloween, you’re in for a treat! With Halloween just around the corner, the city is buzzing with exciting cocktails and festive pop-ups designed to get you into the ghoulish mood. So, if you’re planning a night out, why not sip on something special? From eerie sips to chillingly delicious bites, let’s dive into what Charleston has to offer this season!
First up, we visited Bar Mash, which has been transformed into a whimsical wonderland called “Monster Mash.” As you step inside, you’re welcomed by a décor that screams Halloween, featuring ripped cloth, flickering lights, and even a creepy clown lurking in the corner. It sets quite the atmosphere for an unforgettable night!
Now, let’s talk cocktails! One of the standout drinks is the S-Cream, served in a purple mug that’s straight out of a horror flick. This delightful concoction is a creamy mix of rum, vanilla, cream soda reduction, and topped with a splash of red food coloring for that chilling effect. Yum!
If you’re feeling adventurous, try the Creature from the Green Lagoon, a playful drink with a fruit-based eyeball garnish. It combines tequila, Midori, lemon, passion fruit, and coco orgeat, making it a refreshing option to sip on. And don’t skip the It Float, which comes adorned with a clown nose and a blood-splattered straw – it’s as much fun to look at as it is to drink!
Next up is Prohibition, where the beloved film Beetlejuice! takes center stage in a pop-up that kicks off on October 24. Sneak a peek at the spook-tacular setup that features characters from the movie and fun Halloween-themed drinks! The highlight of the menu is the Sandworm Slush, a chilling blend of bourbon, lime, and ginger beer, garnished with gummy worms – perfect for the kid in all of us.
Another must-try is the Beetlejuice cocktail – a delightful mix containing vodka, coconut cream, pineapple juice, and a dash of nutmeg. Drinking it will make you feel like you’re celebrating Halloween in a tropical paradise – how fun is that? With cocktails that are as tasty as they are eerily enticing, Prohibition will surely be a hit this Halloween.
And let’s not forget about the ever-festive Co-Op. From the moment you approach it, you’re greeted by a pink Jeep loaded with skeletons! The spooky entrance sets the tone for what you’ll find inside: a decor filled with witch hats, cobwebs, and haunting imagery that creates a truly immersive experience. While sipping on cocktails like Black Magic and Poison Apple Punch, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped into a haunted house, but in the best way possible! The Black Magic cocktail is particularly enchanting with its vodka and glittery touch, making every sip feel like a spell!
As the temperatures drop and the leaves change color, Charleston’s Halloween cocktail scene is the perfect way to embrace the spooky vibe. Whether you’re indulging in a monster-themed drink at Bar Mash, enjoying a chilling concoction at Prohibition, or soaking up the ghoulish atmosphere at Co-Op, there’s no shortage of options to meet your Halloween spirit!
So, gather your friends, don your best costumes, and make your way through the city’s best Halloween sips. There’s nothing quite like enjoying seasonal cocktails while soaking in the festive atmosphere as Charleston prepares for one of the most exciting holidays of the year. Cheers to a spooky and spectacular Halloween!
