GateCrashers: Happy Hour Presents the Stay Puft Toasted Marshmallow Martini

Follow along as RJ (@ArghRJ) crafts a cocktail based on the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man from the Ghostbusters universe. This drink is both sweet and spooky, so keep your proton packs charged and ready to go!

With the premiere of Ghostbusters: Afterlife set for this Friday the 19th, I took it upon myself to find inspiration in one of my favorite franchises of all-time. From the films to the tv shows, and the ever abundant toys and props that were scattered around my childhood home, being a Ghostbuster was my destined profession. Things change, people grow up, but the sound of a proton pack being clicked on still makes my heart skip a beat. So, this drink is the merging of my childhood fascination with the destruction of the Stay Puft Marshmallow demi-god and my love of sweet cocktails. Don’t worry I’ll be first in line to see the new film, but I don’t think my Slimer pajamas will fit for the premiere.
