The newly opened La Casita Bakeshop folks are all in on Halloween. “Nothing will stop us making fingers, eyes, hands and ghouls,” the Instagram reads. Preorder online to get your witches’ finger cookies, blueberry eyes, murder cruffins, and a cherry hand pie that’s literally shaped like a hand.

Bubble tea enters the scary season with the Vampire Bite. It’s made using milk, strawberry, pearls, and herbal jelly — and yes, you will get a bloody kick from this drink. It’s also caffeine free, so the kids (and caffeine sensitive) can enjoy a little blood-sucking deliciousness without going full tilt.

Ready to do the monster mash...with a doughnut? Get the mummy Twinkie doughnut at Jarams, or try the s’mores scaries if that’s more aligned with your big Halloween energy. 

Apothecary

While the Pandan Bear isn’t special to Apothecary’s menu for the season, it is a drink that fits the season so well. It’s more of a treat for the adults, made with sesame shochu, cacao gin, white chocolate, pandan-coconut cream, and topped with sesame mochi.

Swizzle has numerous Halloween drinks, but the Calavera Rosa from the Haunted Tiki Bar menu is a real eye-catcher. It combines tequila and passion fruit syrup for a nice treat. But you’re still drinking out of a skull for the tricks.
