Happy Halloween! My fellow Tasty Tuesdayers and I decided to celebrate Halloween this week and wanted to share our spooktacular recipes on the actual day we are honoring. I’m sharing a shot. Well when you need to get your drink on in order to summon the ghouls (or perhaps banish them), this drink is just what Frankenstein ordered!

Ingredients~
1 1/4 oz. chilled peach schnapps
1/8 oz. Rose’s lime juice
3/4 oz. chilled Bailey’s®
A splash chilled grenadine syrup
Directions~
1. Add schnapps and lime juice into a shaker. Shake and pour into your shot glass.
2. Very gently pour Bailey’s into the shot glass over the schnapps and lime juice mixture.
Wait until the Irish cream liqueur begins to clump and ‘curdle’ to look like a brain, just a few moments. (You can use a straw to create this effect by putting the Bailey’s into the straw, plugging it with your finger, and then slowly drizzle it into the schnapps/lime mixture to create threads of Bailey’s that will start to curdle. Continue to ‘build’ your Bailey’s brain that way)

3. Gently pour a tiny amount of grenadine ‘blood’ over the brain.
4. Watch your guests gag over the look of one of the nastiest-looking Halloween drinks around. But they are yummy and a little potent!
Now go scare up these ladies and see what fine Halloween treats they are serving up~
