Many of us are devastated to have to stay home this holiday season rather than spend it with our loved ones, but here's a festive New Year's idea that you might want to try. Create a group of people (via text, email, etc. and not in person!) to exchange holiday drinks and recipes with one another. It's like a cookie exchange, but with cocktails! Many of us miss having a great cocktail out or at a party this year, and it gets expensive buying ingredients for multiple drinks. But if we were to each buy the things to make one for one another and share them with little cocktail kits, how fun could that get?
You can use single serving containers with lids so you don't have to buy a bottle for every household, or splurge on it if you like. Include festive garnishes if you can for an extra flair. Then drop them off on each other's porches for a fun exchange that will help you have a nice New Year's Eve at home. If you don't do alcohol, be sure to let everyone know and create nonalcoholic beverages, too.
