Especially if you’re the one doing all the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mouth.com\/collections\/host-gift-ideas\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"hosting\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehosting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e! \u0026lt;insert three dead inside smiley face emojis here\u0026gt; We get it: two weeks ago you had a couple glasses of wine and it seemed like a \u003cem\u003egreat\u003c\/em\u003e idea to send out that Paperless Post invitation to your whole extended family and everyone in your building. (The Christmas themes are so cute!) But now it’s December and you have forty people coming over for a holiday party next weekend and you just spent all your money on Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales and you need some holiday entertaining on a budget tips and easy Christmas cocktail recipe ideas STAT. We gotchu.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnter: punch with vodka and champagne. Or sparkling wine. Or gin. Or rum. The point is, dump a bunch of alcohol and juice in a bowl and you’ve got yourself a Christmas party punch that looks good, tastes good, and gets people toasted. The best part? You don’t have to stand by the bar cart all night mixing cocktails.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe secret to making a great punch is great ingredients, but no need to go crazy. We’re all about the high\/low rule here. If you use a beautiful fruity base, swap the Champagne for prosecco. Inversely, if you use Champagne, you can go for a simpler juice to let the wine shine. For the base, we recommend something floral, fragrant, tart and complex, but not *too* sugary. (Something like \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mouth.com\/products\/grapefruit-hibiscus-cocktail-mixer#variant=3393254597\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Morris Kitchen Grapefruit Hibiscus Cocktail Mixer\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eMorris Kitchen Grapefruit Hibiscus Cocktail Mixer\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e works great.) For the spirit, we’re partial to something clear, but rum works well too. For the garnish, we love cocktail cherries, or slices of orange (FWIW, citrus in season right now!). You \u003cem\u003eliterally\u003c\/em\u003e can’t mess this up. To make, simply pour all ingredients in a punch bowl. Set bowl on side table in dining room with a stack of plastic cups and napkins. Plug in tree lights. Call it a Christmas miracle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo, get ready to go all Martha Stewart and whip up an easy batch of alcoholic punch! You might even have enough time to take a breather from hosting and actually partake in singing carols ‘round the piano this year. (LOL, coffee table – who can fit a piano in their apartment?? If you can, please add us to that Paperless Post invite.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e\u003cb\u003eBest Party Punch Ever\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e6 oz. fruity cocktail mixer\u003cbr\u003e6 oz. vodka\u003cbr\u003e6 oz.

Any flavor that catches your eye will do, but we especially love cashews and coconut) for a sweet pop of texture. Plus, it’s easy AF to make, and will make you look like the Barefoot Contessa: simply top your fave wheel of cheese with a handful of granola and bake at 350° for 8 minutes. Remove from oven and place on a pretty platter (never underestimate the power of kitschy Christmas plate) with some fancy \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mouth.com\/collections\/chips-and-crackers\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"crackers\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003ecrackers\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e and a small-batch sweet and savory \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mouth.com\/collections\/jam-and-jelly\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"jam\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003ejam\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e (we love a good \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mouth.com\/products\/fig-jam\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"fig spread\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003efig spread\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e) and get munching – just warn everyone to save room for the main course.

After mixing up your favorite macaroni and cheese recipe, pile it in a fancy baking dish, sprinkle it with fruit-free granola, and serve.

One bite and their answer just might be these mashed sweet potatoes topped with savory granola. Mash up those sweets like your mama taught you, add some butter and cream, and top with a savory granola made with rosemary (or any non-sweet version you dig). You’ll never go back to those stale, sickly sweet mini-marshmallows again. You’re welcome.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eEasiest Apple Crumble Ever\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you’ve never been able to understand the phrase “as easy as pie,” try making a simple apple crumble, but skip the homemade crumble part and sprinkle a chunky apple granola over your sliced apples instead.
