Feeling Parched? How About A Little “Tru Blood” To Kill That Thirst?

How will you spend your Halloween? Maybe tanking it up with a bottle of Tru Blood?

 

We already reported on how the beverage, based on the hit HBO supernatural series of the same name, is already in BevMo! stores just waiting for guzzing.

 

No worries about getting too tanked, though, Tru Blood is a non-alcoholic blood orange flavored soda and won’t get you loaded…unless that’s the plan.

 

If cocktailing is your preference, BevMo! has provided us with these fancy recipes using vodka as the booze base.
