The Origin of Halloween
Halloween originated as a pagan holiday called Samhain. The Celts celebrated the end of the harvest season starting around 2000 BC, at the midpoint between the fall equinox and the winter solstice.
The Celts believed, that on this night, the veil separating the worlds between the living and the dead would be the thinnest. Ghosts and the supernatural could cross over and interact with the living.
Dressing in costumes was part of the Celts’ belief that they could confuse the spirits and fairies.
All Saints Day
The Catholics came up with All Saints Day, and the hungry could visit the homes of the wealthy, and ask for ‘Soul Cake’ in exchange for a promise to pray for the souls of dead relatives.
This tradition of ‘Souling’ morphed into what we now call ‘Trick or Treat’
The kids can have their sour patch… Cuddle up by the fire and enjoy your HallowWeenie Martini

FAQ’s for Dessert Martini’s
Why will I love a Dessert Martini?
Do you put ice in a Dessert Martini?
No, Martini’s typically feature chilled Martini glasses, and cocktails that have been shaken with ice and strained. A Martini without ice is often called “Dry”.
What kind of alcohol is used in a Dessert Martini?
Martinis feature Vodka, but dessert Martini’s may contain additional flavors and liqueurs. In addition they generally feature imaginative and tasty rims.
What do you pair with a Dessert Martini?
Since Dessert Martini’s are generally sweeter, they tend to go beautifully with appetizers that are salty. In fact, Dessert Martinis are often served with Charcuterie Boards.
Can a Dessert Martini be dirty?
Dirty Dessert Martinis are unlikely. ‘Dirty’ usually refers to olive brine, which is not very complementary to Dessert Martini flavors. So your Dessert Martini cannot be Dirty- but you and your crazy antics could be an entirely different story!
