Most importantly, don’t stress over the food. Keep it simple, colourful and plan well ahead. Cocktail frankfurts need loads of tomato sauce and chicken drumsticks will be devoured as long as there is a bowl of plum sauce not too far away. Add a plate of small fruit pieces to the table for those who prefer something light and easy.
Here are some savoury nibbles and sweet treats, most of which can be prepared ahead of time and reheated if necessary.
I really really like cocktails especially cocktails having gin as a base. I like also the ladies drink which is the Shirley temple although its not a non-alcoholic drink its okay.
I have another tasty cocktail idea, I tried it and it’s divine, a little strong but very easy. In a glass fullof ice mix 1/2 shot vodka with 1/2 glass of guava, top up with sparkling wine. Mmmmmm!!
I think I would like best The Pear Martini as I totally love vodka mixed with everything. Mmmm I should be fed up of it after the festive seasons. This is really amazing and outstanding.
