Looking for halloween drinks for kids with a little something extra? Think bright green punch, pumpkin-face cups and tiny ghosts peeking out from the toppings.
These pictures give you plenty of ideas for dressing up a party drink without making every cup look the same.
You can keep things simple or go all out with sprinkles. Use alcohol-free drinks to try these looks, choose age-appropriate toppings and keep small nonedible decorations away from drinks and little hands.
Halloween drink ideas worth saving
green punch and gummy worms
We’re starting off strong with this bright green punch. I love the pale frothy top with those red and yellow gummy worms.
The orange-and-black straws make it even more Halloween-ready.
Try the striped straws with your own green punch. Leave the decorative spider on the table rather than the cup.
slime-green glasses
Don’t want to go all out with toppings? No problem! These tall glasses of green punch have just a little foam and colorful striped straws.
The dark backdrop and potion-book decorations do the rest. That’s a cute way to dress up the drink table without decorating every glass.
smiling pumpkin cups
How cute are these little pumpkin faces? The orange drinks show through the clear cups, with black triangular eyes and two different grins on the front.
Add pumpkin-face stickers to the outside of your cups below the rim. Green-and-black straws finish the look.
ghosts against chocolate brown
I am obsessed with these little ghosts. Their white shapes stand out so well against the brown drink, especially with those tiny surprised mouths.
For a similar kid-friendly version, try chocolate milk in a clear cup with white ghost decals on the outside. Keep that pink striped straw if you want a softer touch of color.

purple swirls and a ghost
This purple drink may just be one of my favorites here. The picture labels it as ube boba, with pale lavender at the top and deeper purple swirls below.
I love the waving ghost on the glass. For younger children, borrow the purple-and-white look with a pearl-free drink instead.
floating ice hands
Want something a little spookier than a smiling pumpkin? These hand-shaped ice pieces floating in red punch definitely fit the theme.
The clear patterned bowl lets you see the fingers beneath the surface too. Use a food-safe hand-shaped ice mold if you want to try this with your own alcohol-free punch.
pumpkin cup with sprinkles
How cute is this pumpkin drink? Not gonna lie, that orange, black and white sprinkle rim is my favorite part!
The tall white topping makes the little sprinkles easy to see.
Try the same color mix around your cup with food-safe icing to hold it in place. A big pumpkin grin is worth keeping too.
one big eyeball
If you are looking for a true eye-catcher, then this one is for you. There’s a large eyeball decoration tucked against the white topping, with red streaks running down the cup.
For your own version, use a verified edible eye decoration suited to the children’s ages. You can borrow the red-and-white colors without copying the oversized topper.
dark berries and spider labels
These drinks are a little less playful and a little more spooky. I love the dark bottoms beneath the red drinks, plus the blackberries among the ice.
The spider labels are a lovely finishing touch. Try similar labels on glasses of alcohol-free berry punch if you want to keep the decorating simple.
a worm over the rim
Looks like this gummy worm is making an escape, lol! It hangs over the jar’s edge while more colorful pieces sit below the bubbly green drink.
The green polka-dot straw is so cute here. You don’t need a decorated cup when the garnish already fits the theme.
pumpkin toppers and funny faces
This is another orange drink idea, but the faces make each cup a little different. I love the surprised expression next to the big pumpkin grin.
White swirls run through the orange drinks, with little pumpkin-shaped candies above the topping. Try a different face on each cup rather than making them all match.
little monster drink boxes
Don’t want to mix a party punch? These monster drink-box covers give you another option.
The green wrappers, jagged black hair and stitched smiles are just adorable.
Wrap your chosen drink boxes in green paper and draw on the faces. For younger kids, draw the eyes and bolts too instead of adding loose pieces.
eyeballs in red punch
The eyeballs are the whole idea here! Pale round garnishes with dark berry centers float beside the ice in a deep red drink.

ghost mugs with pumpkin toppings
OMG, how adorable are these ghost mugs? The little black faces are so cute beneath all those toppings.
White ghost-shaped treats and bright orange pumpkins sit above a scattering of sprinkles. I’d keep the matching ghost mug and topper if you’re choosing just a couple of details to copy.

a sleepy green monster
This monster’s sleepy expression is my favorite part. The green drink fills out the face, with black zigzag hair near the rim and little stitches at the sides.
Try this cup design with your favorite green smoothie. Keep any marker or decals on the outside, away from the drinking edge.
green and yellow apple drink
If you’re looking for something without candy toppings, this one is for you. The picture labels it as green apple cider lemonade, with bright green below yellow and apple slices tucked into the ice.
I love the fan of green apple slices at the top. For a kids’ version, make sure the cider is nonalcoholic.
spooky bottle labels
You can dress up the bottles instead of every single cup. These oversized labels pair dark silhouettes with spooky names, including a rat on the front bottle.
For a children’s table, I’d swap the poison wording for something playful like “Monster Fizz.” Keep the actual drink names and ingredient information available so adults know what’s being served.
white spiderweb topping
I love this all-white drink with thin web-like strands stretched across the top. The little black spider makes the pale web easier to spot.
Borrow the look for a vanilla milkshake in a sturdy cup with an edible web decoration. Skip the nonedible spider on the rim when serving children.
ghost float with a sprinkle rim
Last but definitely not least, we have this cute ghost float. The brown drink is being poured over a pale scoop, with orange, black and white sprinkles around the rim.
That little white ghost is too sweet. Try the same decoration on your own root beer float cup, keeping the face simple with two eyes and a tiny round mouth.
