Don't forget the festive Christmas party drinks! The big bowl of holiday punch is always an easy answer, but there are so many other wintry libations to serve. For instance, you can make eggnog that will get grandma run over by adding some rum, brandy, whiskey or bourbon to the cream, eggs, sugar and nutmeg concoction.
For a boozy take on apple cider, why not throw a little rum, butterscotch schnapps, apple pucker or cinnamon schnapps in the mix? There are many festive wines to choose from as well. Red wine glögg is a fancy hot Swedish wine drink with aquavit or brandy. Generally, well-liked wines at Christmas parties include Pinot Noirs and Cabernet Sauvignons for reds, Pinot Grigios and Rieslings for whites, or a Zinfandel Blush.
Other mixers should be available too: cola, tonic water, ginger ale, tomato juice, and coffee and tea. Be sure your guests know what to expect for the drink situation when they receive their invites so they know if they need to bring anything.
Whether you're organizing a Christmas party for your friends, your family, your coworkers or for your own personal gratification, you'll have a great time if you remain organized and give yourself enough time to plan out all the details. Since the Christmas season is all about giving, it makes sense that you would host a party aimed at creating memories that are as warm as that rum-and-cider.
Just make sure you don't get too drunk, and that your mistletoe corner doesn't result in an over-abundance of debauchery!
