Scary story fan Alex must tell a spine-tingling tale every night — or stay trapped with his new friend in a wicked witch’s magical apartment forever. Nightbooks is a 2021 American dark fantasy film directed by David Yarovesky and written by Mikki Daughtry and Tobias Iaconis. The film stars Winslow Fegley, Lidya Jewett, and Krysten Ritter. Based on the 2018 horror-fantasy children’s book of the same name by J. A. White.

In celebration of Nightbooks now available on Netflix I have a spooky cocktail for adults. Drink responsibly 

Serves: 1

Ingredients:

1 tbsp. Corn syrup

3 tbsp. Halloween nonpareil sprinkles

Ice

2 oz. vodka (regular or any berry flavor would work great- omit for a fun kid’s drink)

4-6 oz. Green Berry Rush Hawaiian Punch

Gummy worms for garnish

Take two shallow saucers. Pour corn syrup onto one, and sprinkles onto the other.

Dip the rim of your glass in the corn syrup, followed by the sprinkles.

Fill the glass with ice.

Add vodka.
Optional: Add a splash of Sprite or 7 Up to add fizz.

Fill the remainder of the glass with Green Berry Rush Hawaiian Punch.

Top with gummy worms.

Enjoy!
