Halloween mocktails do the one thing a cocktail can’t: go to every guest at the party. Everything here is alcohol-free, and most of it is built for a punch bowl, because the best trick at a Halloween party is still a frozen hand bobbing in something red.

A few work by the glass instead: a spiced pumpkin juice, a strawberry-and-lemonade brain, a vampire drink that bleeds on cue, and eyeball ice cubes that stare back from any drink. Each entry links to its full recipe guide on the site, which credits the original source.
