In honor of Halloween, Applebee's has announced the long-awaited return of one of its fan-favorite dollar cocktails of the month. That's right, ghosts and ghouls! The Dollar Zombie is back after six years!

"The DOLLAR ZOMBIE is back this October! Applebee's chilling $1 rum cocktail will have guests dying for a taste and thirsting for more," said Nathan Grover, Executive Director of Bar & Beverage at Applebee's. 

The Dollar Zombie is a blue cocktail made with rum, pineapple, passionfruit, cherry, and lime, complete with a brain-shaped gummy on top!

In addition to the $1 zombie cocktail, Applebee's offers new $10 Boo-zy Buckets and Spooky Sips™!

The $10 Boo-zy Buckets come in several flavors, including:

  • Franken-Mama Bucket: "a delicious blue Bahama Mama featuring Bacardí Superior Rum, mixed with Applebee’s signature blue tropical mix, and comes alive with a gummi brain garnish."
  • Dracula’s Juice Bucket: "a mouthwatering creation made with Patron Silver Tequila and Ole Smoky Blackberry Moonshine with triple sec, strawberry, and lemon."

The Spooky Sips include the $5 Boo Lagoon, "a wickedly delicious concoction made with Bacardí Superior Rum, Malibu Coconut Rum, blue curaçao, pineapple juice, served in Applebee’s signature Mucho glass."
