The costume is the hard part. The drinks shouldn’t be. Six spooky ones, each starting with a cold bottle of Bella Principessa, which, conveniently, already looks dressed up.
Which Prosecco for Halloween?
A dry one: the juices and liqueurs bring the sweetness. The Pink for the blood‑red ones.

Trick or treat
The spritz, in costume
Swap in the Rosé, also Brut:With the Rosé: Softer on the bitter, with red fruit under the blood orange.
Over ice in a wine glass: Prosecco, then Aperol, then a splash of blood orange juice. A slice of blood orange on top.
The party
Blackberry, dark as midnight
Swap in the Rosé, also Brut:With the Rosé: Blackberry and red berries: darker, jammier.
Strained blackberry purée and cassis in a flute, Prosecco on top. Drop in one blackberry. It sinks.
The party
One bite, and you’re done for
Swap in the Rosé, also Brut:With the Rosé: Apple and red berries: rosier and rounder.
Cider and pomegranate in the flute, Prosecco on top, a thin red apple slice on the rim.
The party
Green, minty, bubbling
Swap in the Rosé, also Brut:With the Rosé: Elderflower and strawberry: a pink potion.
Mint, elderflower and ice in a wine glass, then Prosecco and soda. Green enough to look suspicious, delicious enough not to care.
After midnight
Cassis: the deep red one
Swap in the Rosé, also Brut:With the Rosé: Cassis and red berries together: deeper and jammier.
Cassis in the flute, Prosecco on top. Serve after dark, obviously.
After midnight
Lemon sorbet, pale and spirited
Swap in the Rosé, also Brut:With the Rosé: Lemon sorbet with a breath of berries.
Whisk the sorbet and vodka, add the Prosecco, whisk gently and serve at once in a coupe.

Note per le Streghe
Bella Principessa Social Club
Never in a glass. For smoke on the bar, put it in a bowl of warm water, out of reach.
Two or three drinks a guest over a long night: a bottle for every two guests.
Dark glassware makes any drink look spooky. The Prosecco does the rest.
The trick‑or‑treaters get the candy. The hosts get the bottle.
Costumes and cars don’t mix. Book it before the party.
Boo. Salute.
For Your Party
Pick the drinks, add your name and the date, and print a Bella Principessa menu for the table. Gold and Rosé by the glass are already on it.

The Bottle
Every Bella Principessa bottle is ceramic‑painted, with no paper label, so it looks like part of the party from the moment it’s in the ice. Gold and Rosé, both Prosecco DOC Brut.
A blood orange spritz, a blackberry Black Widow, a Poison Apple with cider and pomegranate, and a minty green Witch’s Brew.
Don’t put dry ice in a glass. Put it in a bowl of warm water near the bar for the effect, well away from drinks.
A 750 mL bottle pours five glasses: about a bottle for every two guests over a long night.
Blackberry or pomegranate juice topped with sparkling water, in the same dark glasses. Please enjoy responsibly: 21+ only, and plan a safe way home.
