Hello Brother
Raise a glass to Damon and Stefan with this sweet-yet-sour cocktail featuring Brothers Bond Bourbon, sour mix, and strawberry. It’s bold, a little bitter, and everything we love about Mystic Falls.
The Cure
Unlike the show’s Cure, this red juice pouch that blends Tito’s vodka, sour, blackberry, and cranberry won’t turn you human—just delightfully spirited.
Salvatore Split
Dessert disguised as a cocktail, this indulgent creation features Ole Smoky banana pudding, Irish cream, strawberry syrup, and whipped cream. It’s decadent, dramatic, and downright sinful, like our favorite Salvatores.

Doppelgänger
Double the rum, double the trouble. This layered beauty packs light rum, dark rum, passionfruit, lime, and a Luxardo cherry into a single glass. Sweet, bold, and guaranteed to bring out your dark side.
You’re So Vervain
Nothing screams “nightlife in Mystic Falls” like this seductive blend of vodka, lemon, cranberry, and grenadine. One sip and you’ll feel just as irresistible as Damon.
Mystic Margarita
This frozen margarita swirled with grenadine and dressed with a red sugar rim is a showstopper. Sweet, sour, and just dangerous enough to keep things interesting.

Mystic Charmer
Charming, smooth, and a little fiery—sound familiar? With Brothers Bond Bourbon, honey, lemon, and ginger, this drink is pure Salvatore energy in a glass.
Simple Salvatore
Elegant and effortless, this gin cocktail with elderflower, lemon, and ginger is for those who prefer their drinks as sophisticated as Stefan’s brooding looks.

Vampire Barbie
All hail Caroline Forbes! This tropical mix of coconut rum and dragon fruit is sweet, vibrant, and ready to steal the spotlight—just like its namesake.
Mystic Midnight
Dark, mysterious, and utterly enchanting, this cocktail combines melon liqueur, blue Curaçao, Kraken rum, and pineapple juice. It’s basically Mystic Falls in liquid form.
Vampire Bite
If beer cocktails are your vibe, this mix of cider, beer, and blackberry liqueur is your drink. It’s sharp, fruity, and oh-so-dangerous.
Bloody Mary Blood Bag
Forget boring brunch drinks. This traditional Bloody Mary is served in a blood bag on a mini IV pole, because why not? Sip it straight from the bag or “drain” it into your salt-rimmed glass—either way, it’s iconic.
Shots Worth a Bite
• Blueberry Pancake Shot: Blueberry vodka and Buttershots come together in this dessert-meets-breakfast treat. Sweet, nostalgic, and dangerously good.
• Banana Pudding Shot: Banana liqueur and vanilla vodka collide in a creamy, dreamy shot that’s impossible to resist.
Life in Mystic Falls is messy, dramatic, and full of questionable decisions—just like the best cocktails. From broody bourbon blends to blood bag Bloody Marys, these drinks are the perfect way to channel your inner vampire (or sassy doppelgänger). So grab your glass, embrace the chaos, and drink like you’ve got eternity to recover.
