Holiday Party Planning Made Easy

Cocktails or mocktails (like these Festive Holiday Drinks--Hold the Spirits), celebrating with seasonal sippers is always a good time. Because alcohol and mixers can get expensive, let guests bring their own libations. Pair wines with a simple cheese plate and beers with simple snack mixes. And rather than having countless cocktails, cut costs by serving a signature sipper (like this Gingerbread Martini) and be a makeshift mixologist.
