We know the holiday parties are about the commence and there’s no reason why we can’t keep it horror-ific while the festivities are in full swing!

Every Tuesday, NightTide will be sharing a horror-themed cocktail recipe to honor our favorite characters, themes and films all through New Year’s Day! Next up: The Brigitte and Ginger: Sugar and spice and everything better to tear your heart out. Our tribute to the Fitzgerald Sisters of Ginger Snaps.
