Halloween Cocktail Recipes – The Devil Wore Green; The King of Soho wears blue, red and purple

Take a walk on the wild side with these original Halloween recipes from The King of Soho, the London-based gin and vodka brand.
The brand was founded by the two owners, Alex Robson and Howard Raymond. It is a celebration of the Soho legacy of Howard’s iconic father, Paul Raymond – the original ‘King of Soho’. Bottled in jewel-coloured bottles, these spirits are just the thing to get into the spirit of Halloween.
