Creepy Cocktails

Be the hostess with the mostess & serve a tangy treat on arrival. 

In a mixing glass, combine 1½ parts Absolut Madrin, ½ part Malibu, 1 part passion fruit puree, ½ part white grapefruit juice, ¾ part cinnamon schnapps, and 2 dashes Perno Absinthe. Pour over crushed ice in a clear glass. Top with ½ part Cappalletti along with a few plastic spiders for added effect!
