I love making parties extra fun, especially when it comes to tasty drinks for kids.
Spooky drinks are perfect for Halloween, birthday parties, or just any night that needs a little extra excitement.
These 15 spooky, non-alcoholic drinks are easy to make and safe for all ages.
With a handful of simple ingredients, you can whip up fun, colorful drinks that everyone will remember.

1) Witch’s Brew Punch

I always get a kick out of making Witch’s Brew Punch for Halloween parties. It’s colorful, tasty, and easy for kids to enjoy.
The bright green color and bubbling top make it look extra spooky. For this recipe, I use lime sherbet, lemon-lime soda, and pineapple juice.
I add two big scoops of lime sherbet to a large punch bowl. This gives the drink a rich green color and a creamy texture.
Next, I pour in 4 cups of cold lemon-lime soda. It creates fizz and helps the sherbet melt a little.
Then I add 2 cups of chilled pineapple juice for a sweet and tangy flavor. Sometimes I drop in a few pieces of dry ice, but only with an adult around since dry ice can be tricky.
For extra fun, I toss in some gummy worms or plastic eyeballs on top. These make the punch look like a real witch’s brew.
I always use cups with fun designs or spooky colors for serving. A green straw or a sticker on the cup adds to the vibe.
This punch is simple, safe, and easy to make in just a few minutes. When I want to make a big batch, I just double the ingredients.
2) Ghostly Lemonade

Ghostly Lemonade is one of my favorite drinks to make for a spooky party. It looks a little spooky, but it’s still light, sweet, and tangy.
To make Ghostly Lemonade, I start with fresh lemonade. You can use store-bought or squeeze your own lemons.
For every glass, I mix about 1 cup of cold lemonade with a splash of club soda for some fizz. For a ghostly look, I add a scoop of lemon sorbet to each glass.
It floats on top and slowly melts, looking like a drifting ghost. The sorbet also gives the lemonade a creamy texture.
If I want to make it extra spooky, I use black or dark-colored straws. Sometimes I draw little ghost faces on clear glasses with a washable marker.
The kids love seeing their drinks come to life. To put it all together, I fill a tall glass with ice and pour in the lemonade.
Then, I add club soda and gently place a scoop of sorbet on top. If I’m serving to a group, I just repeat this for every glass.
All you need is lemonade, club soda, lemon sorbet, some ice, and a touch of creativity.
3) Blackberry Spider Soda

I love how spooky and fun this Blackberry Spider Soda looks at Halloween parties. The color is deep and dark, which is perfect for a creepy drink.
Plus, it tastes sweet and fruity, so kids actually like to drink it. To make it, I start with blackberry syrup.
You can buy it, or make your own by crushing blackberries with sugar and a bit of water, then straining out the seeds. I use about 2 tablespoons of syrup per glass.
I fill each cup halfway with lemon-lime soda. Then I pour the blackberry syrup in, which makes cool dark swirls.
For the “spider” effect, I drop a small scoop of vanilla ice cream in the middle. The ice cream fizzes up like a spider web as it melts.
To finish, I use black licorice strings for spider legs. I cut eight tiny strips and stick them into the ice cream.
This makes it look like a spider is sitting right on top! If black licorice isn’t a favorite, you can swap it for chocolate sticks or just leave it out.
I always give everyone a straw and a spoon so they can sip and scoop the spooky treat. It’s hard not to smile at this creepy-crawly drink!
4) Pumpkin Patch Smoothie

I love making this Pumpkin Patch Smoothie for a fun fall drink. It’s sweet, smooth, and has a nice pumpkin flavor.
It looks great at Halloween parties or anytime I want a festive treat for kids. To make it, I start with a blender.
I add 1 cup of vanilla yogurt, ½ cup of canned pumpkin puree, and 1 ripe banana. I also pour in ½ cup of orange juice for a bit of tartness.
Next, I add ½ teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice and 1-2 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup. For extra chill, I toss in a handful of ice cubes.
I blend everything until it’s smooth and creamy. I pour it into clear cups so the orange color stands out.
Sometimes, I put a little whipped cream on top and use a green straw to look like a pumpkin stem. I sometimes sprinkle a little cinnamon on top to add more flavor.
I always serve it cold for the best taste. The kids love the creamy texture and the fun pumpkin patch look.
It’s a healthy choice for a Halloween party and is a hit every fall. I keep this recipe handy for quick and tasty autumn drinks.
5) Vampire’s Blood Orange Drink

I love making the Vampire’s Blood Orange Drink for Halloween parties. It looks spooky and tastes sweet, so it’s perfect for kids.
The orange color makes it stand out on any party table. For this recipe, I use blood orange juice because of its deep red color.
Sometimes, I mix regular orange juice with a little cranberry juice if I can’t find blood oranges. Ingredients:
- 2 cups blood orange juice
- 1/2 cup cranberry juice
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 cup sparkling water or lemon-lime soda
- Ice cubes
- Gummy vampire fangs or red licorice for decoration
First, I pour the blood orange juice and cranberry juice into a big pitcher. I then add the lemon juice and stir gently.
Right before serving, I add the sparkling water or lemon-lime soda. This gives the drink some fizz, which kids enjoy.
I fill each glass with ice and pour the juice mixture on top. For a fun touch, I like to hang a gummy vampire fang or a strip of red licorice on the edge of the glass.
If I want to make it even colder, I sometimes freeze orange juice in an ice cube tray. Then I use these orange ice cubes instead of regular ice.
I always make sure to use clear glasses so the bold red color shows off. The kids love watching the bubbles rise through the drink.
The mix of sweet and tart flavors is tasty without being too sugary. It’s something I can prepare with my kids, making it a fun activity before the party starts.
6) Monster Eyeball Punch

I love how easy it is to make this fun and creepy drink. Monster Eyeball Punch is perfect for spooky parties or movie nights.
For the “eyeballs,” I use canned lychee fruit and blueberries. I drain the lychees, then gently push a blueberry into the center of each one.
They look like little eyeballs floating in the punch! To make the punch, I pour 1 liter of lemon-lime soda into a large bowl.
Then, I add 2 cups of green sports drink for color and flavor. For a bit of tartness, I like to mix in 1 cup of pineapple juice.
I drop the “eyeball” lychees into the punch just before serving. They float on top, making the drink look spooky but still tasty.
If I want it colder, I add ice cubes or even freeze a few lychee “eyeballs” ahead of time. Kids love scooping out the eyeballs with a spoon or sipping them through a wide straw.
If I need to make it ahead, I keep the punch and eyeballs separate in the fridge and mix them right before serving. That way, the eyeballs stay fresh and look their best.
I sometimes add a few drops of green food coloring for extra effect. The punch turns a bright, monster-green color that’s really eye-catching.
7) Zombie Brain Freeze Slush

I love making this Zombie Brain Freeze Slush for Halloween parties. It’s icy, sweet, and has a spooky twist that kids find fun and tasty.
To make it, I grab 2 cups of lemon-lime soda, 1 cup of crushed ice, and a few drops of green food coloring. I also use 2 tablespoons of strawberry syrup and a big spoonful of vanilla ice cream.
First, I pour the lemon-lime soda and ice into a blender. Then, I add the green food coloring, just a drop at a time, until I get a bright zombie green color.
I blend the mix until it looks slushy. Next, I pour the slush into clear cups.
I carefully drizzle the strawberry syrup down the sides of each cup. It looks like zombie brains dripping inside!
After that, I top each cup with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream. The ice cream sits on top like a foamy zombie brain.
For extra fun, I sometimes add gummy worms or candy eyeballs on top. It’s also fun to let kids help blend and decorate their own slush.
8) Creepy Crawly Apple Cider

I love serving Creepy Crawly Apple Cider at kids’ parties. This spooky drink is sweet, easy to whip up, and a blast to decorate.
It just looks so good on a Halloween table, doesn’t it?
Usually, I start with my favorite apple cider. Store-bought or homemade—honestly, both are great.
I pour the cider into a big glass pitcher or straight into individual cups if I’m feeling fancy.
Then I’ll toss in a few drops of red or green food coloring for that bright, creepy vibe. Stir it well so the color mixes in—totally optional, but it adds a nice touch.
For an extra pop, I like to rim the glasses with colored sugar. Just dip the rims in water, then into orange or black sugar crystals.
It adds a little sparkle and some sweetness, which never hurts.
Now comes my favorite part—gummy worms and candy bugs. I drop a couple of gummy worms into each cup so they dangle over the edge.
Sometimes I freeze the gummy worms in ice cubes and use those to chill the cider. That’s a fun little trick.
For even more spookiness, I toss on a plastic spider ring or a tiny plastic bug. They’re just for decoration, obviously—don’t eat them!
If I want the drink cold, I add a handful of ice cubes. For a warm version, I’ll heat the cider on the stove with a cinnamon stick, then pour it into mugs and add the “creepy crawlies” on top.
Here’s my simple recipe:
- 4 cups apple cider
- 1-2 drops food coloring (red or green)
- Gummy worms and candy bugs
- Colored sugar for rimming (optional)
- Ice cubes (optional)
Directions:
- Pour apple cider into pitcher or cups.
- Add food coloring and stir.
- Dip glass rims in water, then colored sugar.
- Add gummy worms and candy bugs to each cup.
- Add ice or serve warm, as you like.
9) Mummy’s Milkshake

I love making Mummy’s Milkshake for Halloween parties and family nights. It’s super easy, looks spooky, and tastes sweet and creamy.
For one milkshake, I pour 1 cup of vanilla ice cream and ½ cup of milk into a blender. Sometimes I’ll add a drop of vanilla extract if I’m feeling extra.
Blend until it’s nice and smooth. Then I grab a clear glass so the “mummy” look really shows.
I stick mini marshmallows to the inside of the glass in rows, leaving space for the “eyes.” For the eyes, I use two round candies or just plop in some chocolate drops.
Once the glass looks good, I pour in the milkshake. If the marshmallows try to float away, I gently nudge them back with a spoon.
For the “bandages,” I drizzle white chocolate syrup over the top and sides, leaving the eyes peeking out.
Toss in a fun straw. Maybe sprinkle some crushed cookies on top if you want a little crunch.
I only need a handful of ingredients, so it’s easy to make a bunch if friends show up. Kids get such a kick out of the marshmallow bandages and candy eyes.
If I want to mix things up, sometimes I’ll add a little chocolate or strawberry syrup to the blender. No matter what, Mummy’s Milkshake always makes people smile.
10) Spider Web Fizz

If you want a drink that looks cool but doesn’t take much effort, try my Spider Web Fizz. This one’s always a hit at Halloween parties or sleepovers.
I use lemon-lime soda for the base. It’s sweet, fizzy, and the color is perfect for showing off the spider web.
To make one, I pour a cup of chilled lemon-lime soda into a clear glass. Then I spoon a big scoop of vanilla ice cream right into the middle.
The ice cream makes this fizzy layer on top that looks pretty wild. For the web, I melt a few mini marshmallows in the microwave for about 10 seconds.
Once they’re soft, I pull the marshmallow into thin, stringy strands with a fork or my fingers. I drape those over the drink in a crisscross pattern—instant web.
Sometimes I’ll pop a plastic spider ring on top for extra drama. Just remember to take it out before drinking!
The marshmallow web melts into the drink and adds a little extra sweetness. You can stir it in if you like things on the creamy side.
It comes together in just a few minutes. Kids love watching the fizz bubble up around the “web.”
If you want to cut down on sugar, swap the soda for sparkling water. The effect still looks cool and tastes refreshing.
Spider Web Fizz is perfect for parties because you don’t need anything fancy. I just set out the ingredients and let everyone build their own spooky drink.
You can make a bunch at once if you need to. Just set up a drink station with soda, ice cream, marshmallows, and some plastic spiders.
11) Eyeball Grape Juice

I love making Eyeball Grape Juice for Halloween. It’s sweet, looks awesome, and kids always think it’s hilarious.
The “eyeballs” float in the juice and make every cup look a little creepy. I start with purple grape juice for that deep, spooky color.
I pour the juice into clear cups so everyone can see what’s inside. Now, the fun part—making the “eyeballs.”
I use peeled seedless grapes and a can of lychee fruit. I poke a blueberry into the hole of each lychee so it looks like an eyeball.
Drop a couple of “eyeballs” into each cup of juice. Sometimes I add extra blueberries just for fun.
Here’s the quick recipe:
- 1 bottle of grape juice
- 1 can of lychee fruit in syrup
- 1 cup of fresh blueberries
- 1 bunch of seedless green grapes
Peel the grapes if you want more “eyeballs.” Rinse the lychees, keep them whole, and push a blueberry into each one.
Pour grape juice into clear cups, add a few lychee “eyeballs” and grapes. You can chill it with ice cubes, but honestly, the fruit looks best floating around.
I make it just before serving so the “eyeballs” stay fresh and float at the top. It’s safe for kids and there are no weird flavors—just sweet, fruity fun.
The combo of fruit and juice looks great in photos. People always ask me for the recipe!
12) Frankie’s Frankenstein Shake

This spooky green shake is one of my favorite Halloween treats for kids. It’s fun, easy to make, and looks just like Frankenstein!
I blend 2 cups of vanilla ice cream, 3/4 cup of milk, and a few drops of green food coloring. Add a drop of mint extract if you want something extra.
Once the shake is smooth and bright green, I pour it into a clear glass. I use black gel icing to draw a Frankenstein face on the outside—big eyes, a crooked mouth, maybe some stitches.
For decorations, I top the shake with whipped cream and press on chocolate sprinkles for hair. For bolts, I stick two small candy sticks or chocolate wafers into the sides.
You can add more toppings if you’re in the mood. Green sanding sugar or mini marshmallows look fun, and sometimes I’ll pop a cherry on top.
Serve it with a bright green straw and watch everyone’s faces light up. It’s creamy, sweet, and definitely stands out at any Halloween party.
13) Bat Wing Bubble Tea

I love making Bat Wing Bubble Tea for Halloween. It looks spooky but tastes sweet and fun.
Kids get pretty excited when they see the “bat wings” floating in their drink. I start by cooking black tapioca pearls—just follow the package directions, usually about 10 minutes.
After they’re soft, I let them sit in water with a few drops of black food coloring. Makes them even darker and more mysterious.
While the pearls soak, I brew strong black tea and let it cool. For a caffeine-free version, I use herbal black tea.
Once the tea cools, I add a bit of sugar and a splash of vanilla extract. Pour the tea into clear cups, filling them about three-quarters full.
Spoon in some black boba pearls at the bottom. I like to call these my “bat wings”—they look so cool.
For a finishing touch, I top each cup with whipped cream and a sprinkle of black sugar or chocolate shavings. The whipped cream gives it a foggy look.
If you want, add a plastic bat pick or a bat-themed straw for extra flair.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup black tapioca pearls
- Black food coloring
- 2 cups black tea (or caffeine-free herbal tea)
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

This drink is fun to look at and honestly pretty easy. I love watching kids try the “bat wings”—it always gets a laugh!
14) Ghoul’s Green Juice

I love making Ghoul’s Green Juice for Halloween parties. The bright green color just screams spooky, and honestly, the kids get a kick out of it every time.
It’s fun, tasty, and ridiculously simple to throw together.
I usually mix 1 cup of pineapple juice, 1/2 cup of orange juice, and 1/2 cup of lemon-lime soda. For that wild green, I toss in a few drops of green food coloring.
Everything goes into a big pitcher and gets a good stir.
To make it feel special, I serve it over ice. Sometimes, I’ll hang gummy worms off the rim of each glass.
The worms just make it look a little extra creepy—and honestly, who can resist that?
If I need more, I double or triple the recipe. It’s not fussy, which is a relief when you’re scrambling before guests arrive.
The soda gives it a fizzy pop that kids seem to love.
Just to be clear, this one’s for the kids—no alcohol in the mix. The sweet and tangy combo works for any Halloween bash.
If I’m feeling fancy, I’ll blend in a handful of ice and a peeled kiwi for a thicker, smoothie-like vibe. The color gets even wilder.
Pour it into clear cups so everyone can admire that spooky green glow.

15) Pink Ghost Strawberry Drink

I love making this Pink Ghost Strawberry Drink for Halloween parties. It looks spooky and cute at the same time.
Kids always get excited when they see the little ghost faces! It’s honestly one of those little things that makes the whole table feel more festive.
To start, I gather these simple ingredients:
- 1 cup cold strawberry milk
- 1/2 cup lemon-lime soda
- Whipped cream
- Mini marshmallows
- Black food gel or edible marker
- Ice cubes
First, I fill a clear glass with ice cubes. This helps keep the drink nice and cold.
Next, I pour the strawberry milk over the ice, filling about two-thirds of the glass. I then add the lemon-lime soda for a bit of fizz.
The soda mixes with the strawberry milk, making the drink a pretty pink color. It’s a simple step, but the color is half the charm.
For the ghost decoration, I top the drink with a pile of whipped cream, shaping it into a swirl. I place one or two mini marshmallows on top for the ghost heads.
With a toothpick and black food gel, I draw eyes and a little mouth on each marshmallow. Sometimes, I use an edible marker if I have one—either works, honestly.
Now there’s my own little ghost floating on pink clouds. The drink tastes sweet, creamy, and a little bubbly.
The marshmallows and cream add a fun treat on top. Kids can help assemble the ghosts, making it a fun activity at parties or even on a quiet night at home.
When I serve this, I like to add a striped straw for a festive look. It’s the perfect spooky-but-friendly drink for a Halloween celebration, or really any fun gathering with kids.
