With the help of six bartenders, original French liqueur Cointreau has come up with six spine-chilling cocktails this Halloween season. We track them down and share the taste and inspiration of each one.

Movie Inspiration: Child’s Play
A single mother gives her son the popular Chucky doll as his birthday present, only to find out that it has been possessed by the soul of a notorious serial killer – channelling his urge to kill through the doll.
A nod to its namesake cult horror film that introduced Chucky to the world, Child’s Play should be a delight for cult horror fans eager to spot references. According to Riccardo, the wooden knife stirrer is a reference to Chucky’s weapon of choice. Chucky’s distinctive orange hair is also reflected in the cocktail, as well as his greenish blue eyes recreated using only a single lychee as the socket, fitted with a green grape and blueberry.
