We got all the details on how to throw the best cocktail party from the pro\u00a0himself, Mat Snapp, Beverage Director and Mixologist for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxrc.com\" target=\"_blank\">Fox Restaurant Concepts<\/a>. See below for Mat&#8217;s tips to make your party the smoothest\u2014and tastiest\u2014party of the season.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stock up on Ice <\/strong>\u2013 You&#8217;ll want to have a couple of different types of ice on hand, so plan ahead.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make ice cubes for individual drinks. If you don\u2019t like how your tap water tastes, use bottled water \u2013 it can make a huge difference, especially in Arizona.<\/li>\n<li>You will also need bags of ice to keep your beer, wine and soft drinks chilled<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Set Your Bar up for Success <\/strong>\u2013 Make it easy for party goers to help themselves by providing the proper tools. I always suggest laying out the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Glassware \u2013 wine glasses and rocks glasses<\/li>\n<li>Cocktail shaker<\/li>\n<li>Bucket of your fresh, homemade ice for cocktails<\/li>\n<li>Put out all mixers, alcohol and red wines<\/li>\n<li>Fill a large bowl or bucket with store-bought ice, and use it to chill beer, white wine, and any nonalcoholic beverages<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Batching Cocktails <\/strong>\u2013 Don&#8217;t spend your party time mixing drinks to order for your guests. Instead, batch up a couple of cocktails ahead of time. When the party guests start arriving, make it easy for them to pour themselves a drink from a punch bowl or a pitcher for easy serving. Need a recipe? The Apple Bourbon Punch is always a hit. We\u2019ve provided you with the recipe below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Trust Your Instincts &amp; Don\u2019t Over Do It <\/strong>\u2013 If you want to host a holiday party and drink fun beer and great wine but are feeling the pressure to put out something festive, don\u2019t kill yourself to make a peppermint candy cane milk punch or two gallons of spiked egg nog. Have a few fun mixers and a hot beverage on hand \u2013 but don\u2019t force feed your guests thick liquor!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jello Jigglers are the New Jello Shots <\/strong>\u2013 A simple way to add some holiday spirit to your party without the stress, is to make fun and delicious Jello Jigglers in the shapes of Christmas trees or any holiday-themed shape. Skip the jello shots from your angst-y teenage years and go with jigglers instead. Those are fun, jello shots are tacky\u2014but we won\u2019t judge you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Get Interactive with Dessert<\/strong> \u2013 Make a S\u2019mores station! We like to inject marshmallows with Grand Marnier the night before so they make unbelievable S\u2019mores. TIP: Don\u2019t over inject. Use no more than a quarter ounce per mallow.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Make it Memorable<\/strong> \u2013 make sure there\u2019s something for your guests to take home with them. Whether it\u2019s an autographed picture of the family dog or a hand painted ornament, make sure your party is memorable even when it has ended!<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Looking for punch recipes?<\/strong> <strong>Here is one\u00a0from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.northitaliarestaurant.com\" target=\"_blank\">North Italia<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Apple Bourbon Punch (pictured)<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>.5 oz. Lemon juice<\/li>\n<li>.5 oz. Honey syrup<\/li>\n<li>1 oz. Chai concentrate<\/li>\n<li>1.5 oz. Apple bourbon<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Directions: Add lemon juice, honey syrup, chai and apple bourbon to shaker with ice. Shake vigorously then strain over ice. Garnish with lemon zest and apple slices topped with cinnamon sugar.<\/p>\n<p>*Per liter of bourbon, add 400 grams diced, Fuji apples and four slivered vanilla beans. Let soak for 48 hours, stirring once a day and then strain. When straining, let the fruit drip dry to extract all of the bourbon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hosting a festive holiday party?
