There are many ways to get a martini that has the look of a glass of blood and many of these take the "blood martini" name in some form for Halloween. Usually the "blood" is contributed by a dark juice, in the case of the Blood-tini the acai juice does the trick, and in this Blood Martini it is a combination of grape juice and blackberry syrup. Those two fruits are combined with ginger liqueur - another favorite for fall cocktails - and a great citrus vodka by Ketel One. While the drink may look like a glass of blood, the mix is actually quite delicious.
