The holidays are a time for get togethers with friends and family. If you have kids, getting a sitter and going out for New Year’s Eve doesn’t always happen. My husband and I have spent the majority of our New Year’s Eve at home with the kids. Besides playing board games and eating a lot of yummy finger foods, the kids look forward to the delicious, non-alcoholic drinks they get to drink in “fancy” glasses. This kid friendly drink recipe is perfect for the kids this holiday season!

I love to serve fancy drinks that the kids can still enjoy when we have our New Years Eve get together. I think it’s fun for them to feel like the grownups.

Great idea! We always spend new years eve with our kids also but we’re always out of town or at a family members house. This year we’re hosting a party at our house and I’m sure all the kids are going to go crazy over these drinks!
