How to Throw a Kickass Cocktail Party
There is nothing like a good cocktail party, especially during the summer months. If you want to have a kickass party, here are some tips:
#1 Keep the Bar Stocked
Because this recipe is made in a 1-gallon pitcher and serves four, you might as well make two servings ahead of time! While you’re at it, make sure you have your fridge stocked with plenty of beer, wine, and pop (for the non-drinkers). If you are having a cocktail party, it’s all about the drinks, so go big or go home!
#2 Feed the Party
You can’t have a party without some good food! Of course, you don’t want to spend the whole time in the kitchen. So, keep it sweet and simple. Since you are throwing a cocktail party, your guests aren’t expecting a three-course meal. Here are some super simple foods that you can make ahead of time:
- Chicken Wings
- Meat and Cheese Plate
- Chips and Dip
- Fresh Veggies
- Fruit Salad
#3 Turn Up the Music
Don’t forget to get out Alexa and ask her to turn on some good hits. If your party is outside, you may want to make sure you have some Bluetooth speakers. Picking out music may not be your strong suit so let the vast selection of party-ready playlists from Spotify, Apple Music, or Pandora do it for you.
