Matthew Lillard’s Ghost Face Vodka Is Getting a ‘Bloody’ New Flavor That’s Perfect for Fall
As one of the original stars of the Scream franchise, actor Matthew Lillard is no stranger to a sequel. So it should come as no surprise that the Five Nights at Freddy's 2 star is already releasing the second offering from his Ghost Face Vodka line, which debuted last year.
Fitting with the ghoulish theme of the Matthew Lillard and Fun World-founded brand, the newest release is Ghost Face Vodka Blood Orange.

I Tried High Camp Flasks’ Torch Flask—And Here’s Why It Might Be My Favorite Product From the Brand
Apparently, one High Camp Flask wasn’t enough for me. After spending some time with the brand’s Parkside Flask, which is a win for wine lovers, I’ve moved along to one of the brand’s tiniest offerings: the Torch Flask.
This small-but-mighty flask from High Camp recently underwent a bit of a revamp thanks to its new one-press flip lid. With its double-wall insulation, it’s ideal for enjoying a nicely chilled spirit of your choice or pouring some into your favorite cocktail.

Exclusive: Keith Lee Is Considering a Restaurant Concept That Would Spotlight Local Talent
Keith Lee has become something of a modern-day superhero for local restaurants. It’s hard to believe that it was a little over three years ago when I first covered the mixed martial artist-turned-food critic.
At the top of 2023, Lee visited Frankensons, a family-owned restaurant in Las Vegas, Nevada that was struggling to pay rent. He paid for his own meal and reviewed the items he ordered at the pizzeria in a viral TikTok video that would quickly become “life-changing” for Frankensons.
Applebee’s Is Kicking Off Spooky Season Earlier Than Ever With Two Ghoulish New Cocktails
Not sure when spooky season officially starts—I spotted Halloween decor and pumpkin candles at TJ Maxx weeks ago, so I knew we were pretty darn close. And now that Applebee’s has just unveiled a selection of ghoulish new $6 sips, I think we can finally declare that we’ve entered into the spookiest time of the year.
For a limited time only, diners can indulge in two new, Halloween-inspired sips from Applebee’s: Dracula’s Juice and Tipsy Zombie. They’re both on the fruity side, and with the Tipsy Zombie, the drink is topped with gummi brains for a fun garnish. Depending on the Applebee’s location you visit, you can also purchase a vibe drop shot for either drink.

And since we’ll be sipping our way through pumpkin pie martinis and boozy hot chocolates in the coming weeks, I wanted to showcase drink recipes that are refreshing, fruity, and even a bit effervescent.
I Tried Cutwater’s New Banana Mudslide, and It Wasn’t Quite What I Expected
Back in May of this year, it was revealed that Cutwater was planning on releasing one of its most decadent flavors yet: Banana Mudslide. Cutwater White Russian is hands down my favorite from the brand, so I was really excited to learn that they were going in the dessert cocktail direction once again. Well, I finally got my hands on the latest from Cutwater and I have a lot to say about this one.
Cutwater Banana Mudslide boasts an impressive 13% ABV, and is made with vodka and coffee-cream liqueur, with balanced notes of banana and chocolate. Right off the bat, fans were going crazy over this one.
