When it is about throwing celebrations, people often split into a pair of rather different categories: people that love doing it, and the ones that would choose to do virtually another thing. Being ready early is essential, and choosing a few delicious creations to kick off the evening will entertain your visitors while you try to hold everything together.
Citrusy Smoked Paprika Almonds with Fennel
These citrusy, spicy nibbles make for a perfect match for the refreshing pink grapefruit mocktails detailed further down.
Salmon & Ricotta on Buckwheat Blinis
A scrumptious festive starter that can easily be altered to serve with a fruity topping for younger guests.
Pink Grapefruit, Cardamom and Lime Mocktails
These drinks are a zesty substitute to spirits, but also make a tasty base for a tequila-based cocktail.
Festive Martinis with Juniper & Lemon
Home-infused spirit for a special celebration drink, ideal for giving as a present or pouring at events.
Shredded Lamb Shoulder with Sumac Onion Salad
Enjoy the praise of this impressive spread – everyone will for a moment realize how little preparation was required.
Chocolate Tart with Spiced Cranberry
