It's officially October and rather than gripe about where the year has gone, why not just relax. In honor of the first day of October, have a drink that reminds you how good October can be. It's a pretty simple little theme for a Wednesday so you should be able to grab this one by the horns tonight.Red October Shot
Who didn't love Sean Connery in Red October. A Russian submarine captain with a Scottish accent? Of course, it only made sense. And so does this drink. It's simple, just mix up one part grenadine and one part vodka and down it. It should be nice and smooth, like a Russian James Bond.

Halloween
Mix up orange juice, scotch and vodka. This one will have a nice orange color to remind you of Jack-O-Lanterns to come. Pour it into a martini glass and sip because this drink will be a little stiffer than the last -- it has scotch and vodka.

Witch's Brew
Finally, stir yourself up a magical potion cranberry, sour mix, vodka and Chambord. The flavor of this one will be much more pleasant than the last so enjoy.
