All Hallows’ Eve is upon us, but it isn’t just a holiday for the kiddies. For the adults, this is a time when a refreshing cocktail will hit the spot whether at a party or unwinding after slinging candy at trick or treaters.

But seriously, saying you got all the candy doesn’t exactly scream sophistication.

Here are come cocktails, made with tequila and vodka, that will guarantee that your Halloween is lit.

Drink responsibly folks. And don’t go out like Khloe Kardashian.
