With the month of October marching eagerly towards the day our country dedicates to pumpkins, ghosts, and witches, I am finding myself in the mood for dark and ghoulish Halloween drinks. When considering recipe options the most important factor to me is that I do not want to drink anything too overtly gross (in my opinion anything with fake eyeballs or fingers floating in it falls into this category). I am finding that I am much more interested in bringing any elegant elements that I can into Halloween this year rather than falling back on simply upping the scare factor. This Halloween drink, aptly named The Crimson Stranger, blends bewitchingly beautiful garnishments with a splash of a dark crimson that resembles blood just closely enough to create the perfect Halloween drink.
