4 Proven Tips for Hosting a Virtual Happy Hour

4 Proven Tips for Hosting a Virtual Happy Hour

Pick a drink theme, match your background to the drink, don't forget the food, and treat your friends.

1. Pick a Drink Theme

Premium cocktail mixers can be a great way for friends and family new to making cocktails to try something new, have fun, and of course craft a delicious cocktail. A few of our virtual happy hour favorites are:

  • A Classic Old Fashioned: a stronger sipping drink, Old Fashioneds are the perfect choice for real whiskey lovers and are incredibly easy to make.
  • A Spicy Margarita: refreshing, delicious, fun, and always the right choice when you want to spice things up.
  • A Kentucky Mule: tons of fresh ginger and lime juice mixed with some of Kentucky’s finest bourbon, one of our favorite ways to enjoy whiskey during the summer.

2. Match the Background to the Drink

Margaritas on the beach? Old Fashioneds in a wood-paneled library? Match your background to the drink for some added fun.

3. Don’t Forget the Food

Want to take your virtual happy hour to the next level? Make yourself a little cheese board with a couple of favorite cheeses, some homemade bread, and maybe even a little honey. Or make some guacamole and salsa to pair with your margaritas. When you have a cheese board and a great cocktail, who even wants to leave the house?

4. Treat Your Friends

Send everyone a Pick-3 Party Pack ahead of time, so the whole group is pouring the same drink when the call starts.
