When you want to celebrate on short notice, a simple cocktail party is the perfect way to spend an evening with friends. Any of the below recipes can become your standby line-up requiring little prep time and just a few key ingredients. They will make entertaining at home almost as easy as heading out to your favorite local restaurant!
If you feel like you've missed the boat on ordering anything custom, allow us to introduce you to CVS Photo. With price points that are super affordable paired with their same-day pickup option, they’re a holiday procrastinator’s best friend.
Choose recipes that scale easily so you can alter them depending on your guest list. If you’re hosting an event outside of mealtime, pick a few recipes and plan on one to two bites per person. And if you choose elegant main nibbles, try offering fun comfort foods like s’mores bites or cookie sundaes as a dessert surprise. Add a few bottles of wine or your signature “house” cocktail and you’re ready to celebrate. Cheers!
