Ring in the New Year Cocktail Round-Up
Get your blowers, party hats, and fancy cocktail glasses ready! It’s time to say good-bye to 2014 and welcome a bright, shiny, prosperous new year.
In order to properly ring in the New Year, you’re going to need something special to put in that fancy glass of yours. So, I compiled a list of my favorite cocktails from across the web for you to choose from.
My favorite way to celebrate any party is by the pitcher. I like to prepare several pitchers of sangria, punch, or margaritas so I don’t have to spend the entire night acting as head bartender. Call me lazy, but I prefer to enjoy the party.
