Halloween in New York City is always a festive affair. The city hosts a slew of spooky events. The Annual Village Halloween parade is one of many highlights during Halloween. The parade itself is filled with amazing costumes, floats, and great performances. Before heading out to enjoy All Hallows’ Eve frenzy, I plan on hosting a more intimate affair with some close friends. Think of it as the calm before the storm if you will. Amongst my friends, I’m usually the go-to person for creating a delicious and festive drink for everyone. For Halloween, I’ve created the “Scream Cream.” The main ingredient for this beverage is Hornitos® Black Barrel, which is a premium aged Añejo tequila. It’s different than any other tequila I’ve consumed in the past, simply because of the hint of whiskey this flavor carries, and I also enjoy a good whiskey.
To make one cocktail, you’ll need
1-1/2 ounces of Hornitos® Black Barrel
1/2 ounce simple syrup
1 teaspoon pumpkin puree
2 ounces half-and-half (or eggnog)
Dash pumpkin pie spice
Garnish with cherry or cinnamon
Directions
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add Hornitos® Black Barrel, simple syrup, pumpkin puree, half-and-half or eggnog, and pumpkin pie spice. Shake well and strain into a tumbler or cocktail glass. Garnish with cinnamon or cherry, whichever you prefer.
The Scream Cream is of course, creamy, a little sweet, and velvety smooth.
Always remember to drink responsibly!
