The editorial take
Applebee's Grill + Bar runs a beverage program built around happy hour and a limited-time '$6 Spooky Sips' Halloween promotion. The cocktail side gets specific: New Tipsy Zombie lists Bacardí and an optional 'Vibe Drop' add-on, while New Dracula's Juice combines Bacardí with Cuervo Tradicional 100% de Agave and includes a gummi brain with gelatin. Draft beer is poured cold and available during happy hour, and the location page points guests to call for current taps. Non-alcoholic options and mocktails are part of the same Halloween promotion, though details vary by location.
