Organic Earth Day Tequila Drink RecipesEvery occasion calls for the right drink to commemorate the moment with a beverage that’s just right and perfectly enjoyable. Coffee may not be the ideal pick for celebrations and fiestas, but it is the perfect choice for any event that involves conversing. However, some beverages click with a particular occasion, offering the ideal blend of mood-enhancing spirits for a well-executed evening. 

Planning an event isn’t easy, especially when it comes to picking suitable beverages. An enormous amount of effort and research goes into learning the guests’ preferences and offering drinks they enjoy. However, experimenting is the way to go when one isn’t familiar with the guest’s preferences. Hosts usually end up pairing beverages based on the mood they wish to create.

For instance, mimosas and cocktails work excellently with Sunday brunch menus. Weddings, birthdays, promotions, and all other celebrations call for champagne. Likewise, Saturday nights are all about tequila shots and vodka martinis. If you’re having trouble finding the perfect beverage for your soiree, keep reading to brush up on your drink-serving knowledge. 

Coffee 

Coffee is the right beverage for all occasions that involve deep, influential, and meaningful conversations. Caffeine keeps the mind energetic and awake, bringing all our cognitive capabilities into action. No wonder coffee was a compelling cultural element in Europe’s salon culture, contributing to the transformative enlightenment movement led by intellectuals. 

People love sharing cuppa joe’s overheated discussions, debates, study groups, and all activities that involve talking. Coffee is an excellent choice for business meetings or catching up with old friends. If the weather doesn’t permit a piping hot cappuccino, a cold brew coffee is the best way to beat the heat. Cold coffees are much more flavorful and can get inventive with toppings and additives to enhance the flavor. 

Cold brews pack up a scintillating burst of caffeine that one can enjoy at summertime garden parties and indoor meetings. 

Champagne 

It’s hard to celebrate an occasion without a fancy flute of bubbly unless you’ve never had champagne in your life. So whether you’re looking for the perfect gift or wish to mark an occasion with the right celebratory beverage, champagne works splendidly. 

The simple act of uncorking the bottle and letting out a little shower of champagne adds a zest to the party. It’s hands down the perfect beverage for all celebrations, be it a birthday party, a wedding, or an anniversary. 

Jet-setters and It girls like sipping on bubbly every time they sit in a limo, or maybe that’s just a Hollywood fantasy. Either way, pairing champagne with a limousine ride sounds like an excellent plan for a sweep-me-off-my-feet first date. 

Tea 

A scintillating and aromatic cup of tea is the British answer to all of life’s troubles and conundrums. It’s also the perfect beverage for high-teas, garden parties, brunches, and preparing a last-minute spread for unexpected callers.

We adore English tea spreads and high-tea extravaganzas. One can truly learn to appreciate tea and enjoy various flavors from the British and their love for this beverage. There’s truly nothing more comforting than freshly baked bread and creamy scones paired with freshly brewed Earl Grey tea. 

If you strive to put the British aristocracy to shame, you must learn the proper way of brewing tea. If that’s too much of a struggle, invest in some artistic-looking ceramics featuring hand-painted motifs. And, of course, create a spectacular spread of beautiful pottery, savory snacks, and buttery desserts. 

Wine 

Whether you’re drowning your sorrows or planning a lavish dinner party, wine is an endlessly versatile beverage. It induces the right mood for just about everything, from enjoying lamb and poultry to wallowing and drunk-dialing your ex. The versatility of wine knows no bounds, but picking the right wine isn’t easy. 

You see, wine comes in a plethora of varieties and price ranges, and storing it is another struggle entirely. Some people prefer bottled and packaged types commonly stored at grocery stores and supermarkets. However, wine connoisseurs are very particular about branding, aging, and wine storage. 

Suppose you know very little about wine, and you’re inviting ardent wine lovers for dinner. In that case, we advise you to avoid wine faux pas and directly ask them for guidance on their preferences. Serving bottled wine to uncultured people isn’t much of a challenge, as long as they can open the box and pour. 

Generally, you will find yourself choosing between two broad varieties: white and red wine. White wine is an ideal choice before serving the food or pairing up with salads and seafood. White wine is also an excellent choice for celebrations and making a toast. 

Red wine works splendidly with all food choices and main courses. However, ideally, red wine is best served during the meal, after the main course is served. It works splendidly well with pork, lamb, and poultry dishes. 

Cocktails 

Cocktails are exciting and fun combinations of liquor-infused with fresh fruit juices and other ingredients. These concoctions are ideally suited for people who do not enjoy the bitter taste of hard drinks. However, some people attend parties just for the joy of sampling inventive new cocktails and delighting their tastebuds with unique blends. 

Are you planning to set up a bar and hire a swanky bartender to impress the guests with mind-blowing bartending tricks? In that case, a fun roundup of cocktails infused with fresh seasonal fruits is the perfect choice of beverage. Cocktails will offer your guests ample variety to find their poison and experiment with new flavors. 

Fresh Juices & Smoothies

What does one serve guests who abstain from alcohol or are highly conscious about their health? In such situations, presenting someone with a glass of whiskey or champagne can serve as an insult to their customs. 

Suppose your guest list includes pregnant women or people who abstain from alcohol. In that case, serving your guests with fresh juices and smoothies or a Pina colada seems like a fabulous idea. You can create a colorful assortment of mocktails with delicious fruits to create an artsy presentation. 

Fresh fruit juices and smoothies are the right beverage for BBQs, garden parties, high-teas, and even celebrations. 

Conclusion 

Pairing the right drink with the right occasion isn’t challenging, as long as you understand your guests’ preferences. There’s nothing more embarrassing than serving an alcoholic beverage to someone who doesn’t drink. Hence, we advise you to plan carefully and understand the drinking preferences of your guests before preparing the beverages.
