Can you believe it’s almost time to say goodbye to another year and welcome in the new one? New Year’s Eve is the perfect time to gather with loved ones, reminisce about the past year, and make those grand resolutions for the one ahead. And trust us—there’s no better way to do it than with some fabulous New Year’s Eve cocktails or mocktails in hand!
Whether you’re a fan of the classic champagne toast or you’re looking for something a bit different, we’ve got you covered. For those who enjoy a bit of bubbly, you can’t go wrong with Paula’s New Year’s Eve Champagne Punch or her glitzy Startini champagne cocktail recipe with festive gold flakes.
For you cocktail connoisseurs, consider serving up The Lady & Sons’ Pecan Caramel Apple Martini or this Christmas Martini recipe, which is appropriate all holiday season long! Prefer something a little more classic? You can’t go wrong with a Hot Buttered Rum recipe or a traditional Eggnog recipe!
But not everyone (Paula included) needs an adult beverage in hand as they ring in the new year! Whether you’re looking to make something fun for the kids or you just don’t drink, this Not-Really-Champagne Cotton Candy Mocktail or Paula’s Rosemary Blood Orange Spritzer are both fabulously festive options.
And while taste is ever-important, let’s not forget the importance of presentation on a night like New Year’s Eve! Have fun with beautiful sugared rims, garnishes, edible glitter, and swizzle sticks to make them feel extra celebratory.
Now that we have our New Year’s Eve cocktail recipes and New Year’s Eve mocktail recipes sorted out, let’s raise our glasses and cheers to a new year full of joy, love, and adventure. Here’s wishing y’all a sparkling New Year’s Eve!
Cheers!
