🍸 Hauntingly Good Spirits: New Orleans Cocktails to Die For

 


🍸 Hauntingly Good Spirits: New Orleans Cocktails to Die For

If you thought New Orleans was only about jazz, jambalaya, and Mardi Gras beads—think again. The Big Easy is also the Big Eerie, and nothing captures its spooky soul quite like a cocktail shaken with a little history, a dash of mystery, and a splash of the supernatural.

Enter Hauntingly Good Spirits: New Orleans Cocktails to Die For by Sharon Keating and Christi Keating Sumich—a cocktail book that’s equal parts recipe collection, haunted history tour, and cheeky sΓ©ance with your taste buds.

πŸ‘» Booze Meets Boos

This isn’t your average cocktail guide. With 40 gothic, ghoulish, and downright delicious recipes, you’ll be sipping your way through the city’s haunted past. Think:

  • Corpse Reviver – because sometimes coffee just isn’t enough.

  • Spooky Smoked Sazerac – the official drink of “I’m classy, but also possibly cursed.”

  • The Soggy Grave – a drink so good, you’ll be dying for another.

  • Fang-ria – sangria with bite. Literally.

Each recipe is paired with eerie tales of New Orleans’ haunted bars, vampire hangouts, and voodoo lore. It’s like a ghost tour… but with better cocktails.

πŸ•―️ A Toast to the Afterlife

The book is divided into five sections—Reverence and Revelry, Tomb Time, Ghosts & Haunted Libations, Vampire Bars with Killer Cocktails, and Voodoo & Witchcraft—so you can drink your way through the underworld in style. Along the way, you’ll meet the mixologists who keep the city’s spirit (and spirits) alive, and you’ll even get a handy Spirit Guide map to track down the real-life haunts behind the drinks.

πŸŽƒ Why You Need This Book

  • It’s perfect for Halloween parties (your guests will scream—in delight).

  • It’s a must-have for cocktail lovers who want something beyond the basic margarita.

  • It’s basically a souvenir of New Orleans without the airport security line.

πŸ•·️ Final Sip (and Call to Action)

Whether you’re planning a haunted house party, a spooky date night, or just want to impress your friends with a cocktail that sounds like it came from Dracula’s bar cart, Hauntingly Good Spirits is your ticket to the other side of happy hour.

πŸ‘‰ Don’t ghost this opportunity—grab your copy of Hauntingly Good Spirits: New Orleans Cocktails to Die For today and raise a glass to the boos and the booze!
