Halloween Done Differently at South Point Grocery

As autumn settles into Memphis, South Point Grocery turns into your destination for creating memorable Halloween moments in the city. Whether you’re hosting an intimate gathering, planning a horror film marathon, or preparing for your neighborhood’s trick-or-treaters, we’ve got everything you need to celebrate in seasonal style.

An Elevated Halloween Snack List

Make your gathering great with our selection of premium ingredients perfect for creating sophisticated yet playful Halloween snacks. Here’s a few of our favorite ideas:

Prosciutto-Wrapped “Mummy” Asparagus

Give the classic mummy wrap an upgrade! Select asparagus or another fun base from our award-winning produce section and cook to taste. We prefer roasting asparagus in the oven with olive oil, salt, and other delicious seasonings. Finish them off by wrapping them in thin strips of prosciutto. If you prefer bacon, pre-wrap your asparagus spears before you bake them. A bit of balsamic glaze creates the perfect “eye” for these bites that honor the Halloween spirit while elevating your party appetizer or side.

Dark Chocolate Ghost Brownies

For a dessert that’s both refined and seasonal, mix up the traditional brownie. Use a dark chocolate brownie mix or start from scratch. Feel free to add dark chocolate chips, cherries, or any other mix-in you love. After baking the brownies to a fudgy perfection and allowing them to cool completely, generously spread a dollop of creamy white icing, or drizzle melted white chocolate on top of the brownies. For the finishing touch, place a pair of candy or nutty eyes on each brownie. This twist not only adds a charming touch to your dessert, but also makes for a fun treat that’s perfect for Halloween.

Signature Seasonal Drinks (For Adults!)

No celebration is truly complete without a drink selection! At South Point Grocery, we have all the seasonal craft beers and wines you’ll need for your guests to sip on. Our beer and wine shelves are curated year-round by our knowledge staff, and we’re happy to help you find the perfect IPA, pinot grigio, or non-alcoholic brew!

Poison Apple Cider 

Transform your apple cider into a potion by blending it with rich dark rum, and a hint of cinnamon. Warm spices are the key to getting that classic fall flavor! For a photo-worthy presentation, garnish each glass with thinly sliced, crisp apples and a fragrant cinnamon stick. You could even coat the rims of your glasses with sugar! 

Vampire’s Blood Punch

This deep red punch is sure to be a hit! This vibrant blend features cranberry juice, apple juice, and your favorite red punch to mix. Add a splash of club or lemon-lime soda for a refreshing fizz. Finish your punch off with berry vodka and orange liqueur!
