Scooby Doo Movie Night

Jinkies, Jeepers, Zoinks!

I am a huge Scooby-Doo fan so it was a no-brainer that I had to come up with some recipes to go with the live-action 2002 Scooby-Doo movie.

Most of the movie is set on Spooky Island where the gang has to work together to solve the mystery of why all the college kids are turning into zombie-like creatures. The cocktail I paired with this movie definitely has all the beachy vibes.

The snack, on the other hand, is a Shaggy and Scooby-Doo classic! Let's get to it!

Pineapple Coconut Beach Cocktail

Scooby Doo Cocktail

This pineapple coconut beach cocktail is also known as the Spooky Island! If I had to think of what the beach would taste like, I would imagine this drink.

Since Scooby-Doo is mostly island-themed, this cocktail matches so well. It has a kick of pineapple, coconut, lemon juice, and lime juice. The blue curacao brings in some orange flavor and when mixed with the pineapple juice, you get this gorgeous turquoise cocktail. Lastly, a little bit of silver tequila makes this cocktail taste great.

I recommend serving this beachy cocktail in a pirate cup and garnished with some pineapple stuck with a plastic cocktail sword.

Fair warning- this is a strong drink so be careful. It's hard to have just one!

Shaggy's Spooky Sandwich

Scooby Doo Food

There's many foods that comes to mind when I think of Shaggy and Scooby-Doo but one more than the others. That's the classic multi-layered sandwich with an olive stuck on the top bread. You know the ones that they somehow (and impressively) eat in one bite.

These sandwiches always looked so good, and I just had to bring them to life.

When I was thinking of what to put in this sandwich, I imagined somebody asking Shaggy, "What do you want on your sandwich." Of course, his answer would be "everything". While I didn't go as crazy as Shaggy like adding marshmallows or pouring chocolate on eggplant, it's still a winning sandwich.

This huge sandwich consists of four pieces of bread, mayonnaise, mustard, Dijon, salami, ham, turkey, bacon, gouda, cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and a few shakes of hot sauce.

To make this sandwich spooky, I went with two olives on top so it looked like eyes! The world is your oyster with this sandwich, and you can add pretty much anything that you want to it!
