What is the recipe for a successful party? For us, it all resides within the first ingredient: the party starters! Here is a guide to a party you won’t forget.
Taste of the party
In the hustle and bustle of arrivals, guests should be welcomed with… a welcome drink. Why not treat them with something fresh and fizzy, that will cheer up the taste buds and help to break the ice? The METAXA 5 Stars Icebreaker – a cocktail made to share, will definitely do the trick and open up inspiring conversations.
Sound of the party
There is not so much of a party without good music. It sets the tone and rhythm of the gathering. You may reach for the METAXA Party Starter Playlist full of fun and lively beats that will bring in the energy and introduce some movement among the guests. But a line-up of joyful tunes is not the only sound of the party. The din of conversations, the ice cubes tossed in the glasses, the clinking and people cheering compose the natural music of the party!
Spirit of the party
A great way to get your guests mingling and having fun at your party is to summon a team spirit through some games! Begin with splitting guests into teams and gathering supplies like spoons, ping pong balls, balloons, and more for various silly challenges. Set up a scoring system and designate areas for each challenge. Run through the list of challenges, timing each one and ensuring all team members get a turn. Finally, announce the winning team and award a prize but the main goal is to have fun and get the party started!
Examples of games:
- Spoon Pong Relay: Carry a ping pong ball on a spoon across the room
- Looney Ballooney: Blow up a balloon as quickly as possible
- Card Flip Challenge: Flip cards with your nose within a time limit
Heart and soul of the party
Vibrant tunes, games and rich flavours of METAXA cocktails are surely important ingredients of every party starter, but there would be no party at all without the ones who organize the party! The wonderful and creative hosts who spark the get-togethers with lively beats and reach for unexpected tastes.
Cheers to the party starters!
