Party Tricks

Wow, the holidays blustered by and we totally dropped the ball on keeping everyone updated with what to drink, what we drank, and what to eat with what you drink. Eek! But before we get back to business, I wanted to share a few of my favorite party tricks of the season.


Bigger is Better: We're talking magnums, baby! 'cause nothing goes better with a celebration than a super sized bottle of wine! Whether you're the host of the party or a favored guest, arriving with a huge bottle is a sure-fire way to impress. We also love gifting large format bottles for weddings and birthdays---never fails to bring a smile!

Sabering bubbles: for greatest impact, grab the biggest knife you can find (though even a butter knife will do) to pop that bottle with a bang. It's probably the most amazing party trick and its not as hard as you'd think! Just be sure to aim far, far away from breakable windows and unaware party guests...

Home-made eggnog: I have no idea where this ΓΌber-decadent holiday tradition came from, but it sure does pack a wow-factor when you've made it yourself; not to mention it's far less-terrible on the gut than the synthetic stuff in cartons. Plus you can substitute half the ingredients with low/non-fat options and it'll still taste like melty-boozy-ice cream! So rich, my nog limit is 1 per 5 years or so...
