| Tanduay Spooky Cocktail by Derek Ramsay |
If you are looking for creative Halloween drinks and cocktails to serve for your Halloween party, Derek Ramsay shares some of his favorite Tanduay rhum concoctions to liven up your virtual get-together with your family and friends.
“We’ve been through a tough year, and we are still doing our best to cope with the current situation. This is why it’s important to celebrate once in a while, to remind ourselves of the good things that we have in our life like our loved ones.” ~Derek Ramsay
The cocktails are easy to do, Derek assured, and can be made using ingredients that are available in stores.
