Low Carb Halloween Cocktails and Mocktails

October 28, 2021

According to Fitbit, the average trick or treater (or parent accompanying a trick or treater) walks 1.25 miles. That’s enough to work up an appetite for a pot of low carb turkey chili and low carb cornbread for you and your little ghouls and goblins. All you need is a piping hot low carb Halloween cocktail or mocktail as a reward for getting those extra steps in:

Low Carb Boozy Pumpkin Spice Chai Latte

This will keep you warm while trick or treating with the kids. It’s equally good with or without the spiced rum.

Mulled Wine

Simmer your mulled wine in your crockpot so it’s ready whenever you are.

Low Carb Boozy Peppermint Hot Chocolate

You can use rum instead of vodka or skip the booze entirely for this peppermint chocolate treat in a mug.

Mexican Hot Chocolate

A cinnamon stick to stir your hot chocolate adds the last flavorful touch for this booze-free hot chocolate the whole family can enjoy.

It can be a challenge to cut back on sugar during this candy-filled holiday, but you can try these four tricks for enjoying Halloween treats on a low carb lifestyle.
