I love a great Halloween recipe and this Hocus Pocus Blueberry Blackberry Mocktail is definitely one for the books.

My go-to treats are these Classic Halloween Graveyard Cheesecake Bites, Easy Spooky Double Chocolate Cupcakes, and Dairy-Free Caramel Apple Cider. But this year, I wanted to take things in a scarier direction. This blueberry blackberry mocktail looks creepy, but it tastes like a treat, not a trick!

It has a fruity flavor and you can dress it up with your favorite spooky decorations to delight guests of all ages this Halloween.

How to Make Hocus Pocus Blueberry Blackberry Mocktail

All it takes to make this spooky Hocus Pocus Blueberry Blackberry Mocktail is a mixing bowl, a muddler and a few key ingredients. This is the same way I like to make all my fruity drinks. If you have a potato masher, that will do the trick!

Ingredients

Here's what to need to make Halloween mocktails:

  • Fresh blueberries and blackberries
  • Lemon juice. For a touch of brightness
  • Blueberry juice. I like to use RW Knudsen 100% blueberry juice.
  • Cinnamon. This adds a touch of fall-spiced flavor to the potion.
  • Agave. Feel free to use a different liquid sweetener if you like, such as honey or maple syrup.
