How To Serve A Crowd

Refreshing beverages are a must for game day celebrations but they need not be complicated. The key is to offer something familiar yet refreshing. Since these gatherings are generally large, a pitcher sized portion is the ideal way to serve them.

The Technique

Big Batch Sweet Tea Margaritas are a cinch to prepare & will serve approximately 6 to 8 guests. Mix the beverage ahead of time & place in a pitcher by combining 1 1/2 cups tequila, 1 cup Grand Marnier, 4 cups sweetened iced tea & 2 cups limeade. Add the garnishes just before serving. Fill a bucket with ice & accompany with a scoop, then organize glasses & beverage napkins on a tray so guests may help themselves.
