Ruffino Prosecco, SVEDKA Vodka and Casa Noble Tequila Share Some Thanksgiving Make-it Yourself Cocktails
Here are some cocktail recipes you are going to want to make for your guests this Thanksgiving. For a larger crowd, the Prosecco Punch is probably the easiest way to go. Make up the base (without Prosecco) ahead of time and store in the refrigerator. About 30 minutes before guests arrive, pour in a punch bowl, add a simple ice ring with fruit (made a day or two before and stored in freezer) and let guests serve themselves. This gives you time to visit with everyone.
