Hey, Reader!

While I'm admittedly not a big football fan, the tailgates have done their best to try to sway me. I love the atmosphere — it's fun, it's loud and there's plenty of food and drinks to go around!

Bringing a cocktail to share may just make you the MVP of game day. It's easy to do when you pick a batch recipe that's already made for a crowd, or a recipe that comes together in a snap.

Cheer on your team (or simply enjoy the party) with one of these in hand and you'll win no matter what the scoreboard says:

spiced rum punch The warmth of spices comes through in every sip of this spiced rum punch to keep you cozy on the coldest game days. Made with fresh citrus juices, cinnamon simple syrup, and spiced rum, this big-batch cocktail is bold and totally smooth. get the recipe »

apple cider sangria If you want something a little different from what you typically find at tailgates, mix up a batch (or two) of this easy apple cider sangria. This recipe blends crisp, fresh apple cider with dry white wine, brandy, and a splash of aromatic bitters. It’s bursting with apple flavor and the perfect sip for a fall day. get the recipe »

pumpkin ginger shandy Beer is a familiar face at any tailgate, but this pumpkin ginger shandy takes it to the next level. With just a few ingredients, you can craft a flavorful drink that's the perfect thing to enjoy on game day. get the recipe »

non-alcoholic sangria This super easy non-alcoholic sangria is perfect for the whole crowd. Fresh juices combine for a refreshing and tasty combo that will keep you feeling great all game long! It uses cranberry, lime, orange and grape juice in this, topped with lemon lime soda. Add in some fresh citrus slices and an apple for a fall touch. get the recipe »

Here's hoping your favorite team has a great season! 🤞

Cheers!
