PA RT Y P LANS FOR THE

New ideas in planning
for your festive gettogether.

T

raditions play an important
role during the holidays, from
religious ceremonies to family
foods and festivities. Even holiday
parties tend to follow a routine:
familiar food and drink, mixing
and mingling with friends and
wearing party outfits or tacky
sweaters. But sometimes it's nice
to break from tradition and try
something new and different.
These ideas can guide you in
creating memorable experiences
that take you and your guests
beyond the tried and true. Each
suggestion, infused with fine
cocktails and spirits, can bring
new life to the holiday season.
Who knows, you might even start
a new tradition!

Host a tacky-light-tour party.
Sashay around town to the
best-decorated homes and
businesses, then return
home to celebrate the season.
Afterwards, serve drinks
you've prepared ahead of
time, so you can party along
with your friends! Examples
of make-ahead drinks include
batch cocktails, mulled wine,
hot cider, spiked hot chocolate
and eggnog.
Attend a local holiday event
together. Follow the fun with
food and cocktails appropriate
to the event. For example,
after GardenFest of Lights
