Nothing brings friends and family together like game day, and the right cocktails paired with delicious appetizers can elevate the experience. Here are a few pairings that will keep everyone cheering.
Margaritas & Spicy Nachos
A classic margarita is always a hit with its zesty lime flavor and refreshing profile. Pair this with a plate of spicy nachos topped with jalapeños, melted cheese, and guacamole. The margarita’s citrus kick balances the heat, creating a perfectly balanced snack and sip combo.
Tip: Add a splash of Alma Finca Orange Liqueur for an extra burst of flavor.
Whiskey Sours & BBQ Wings
For those who prefer something hearty, BBQ wings paired with a whiskey sour make a winning duo. The tartness of the whiskey sour cuts through the rich, smoky flavors of the wings, while the whiskey adds a warming touch to each bite.
Gin & Tonic with Loaded Potato Skins
A crisp gin and tonic pairs excellently with loaded potato skins. The effervescence of tonic water and botanical notes of gin balances the richness of melted cheese, bacon, and sour cream. It’s the ultimate refreshing pairing to keep things light and lively.
Tip: Try using Junipero Gin Smoked Rosemary to elevate your Gin & Tonic.
Spiked Lemonade & Mini Sliders
For a lighter option, try spiked lemonade with mini sliders. Whether you go for beef, chicken, or veggie, the tangy lemonade brightens up each bite and keeps things refreshing, making it a great choice for longer game days.
Tip: Mix Blackleaf Organic Vodka with fresh lemonade and a hint of mint for a refreshing twist.
With these delicious pairings, you’re all set for a game day feast that keeps the energy high and the flavors bold. Cheers to tasty bites and great company!
