What drinks are you serving at your DC's bday party?
Trying to put together a list for DS's 2nd party.
We expect around 15 kids. Not sure how many adults. I'm assuming 25-30 adults.
What drinks should I get? Does this sound ok?
Juice boxes for the kids (fruit punch or apple?) Coke Diet Coke Orange Juice

Re: What drinks are you serving at your DC's bday party?
I would add water too b/c not many pple drink soda or juices
what time of day are you having the party? If it's in the later afternoon you could probably skip the OJ since the kids will already have juice maybe a Sprite
other than that you're fine

I would definitely add bottles of water and a non caffeine soda like Sprite or Ginger Ale.

It's a 10am party. No beer. I was thinking about coffee but it seemed like too much trouble. We live in Manhattan and don't have a car.

I second Water, Ice and Ginger Ale
I went to one that only had Water, Apple Juice and Ginger Ale, period.
Seemed ok by me. Less temptation for the kids.

Re: What drinks are you serving at your DC's bday party?
i made apple punch, and we had water too. The guys brought their own beer but i made them serve it in glasses, DD knows what a beer bottle is. She once tried to take her her play maple syrup which is a brown bottle and tried to drink it like daddy does.

Re: What drinks are you serving at your DC's bday party?
I got a gallon of fresh pressed apple cider from a farm by our house and a bunch of cups.
no complaints. nothing left either.
we had soda, beer, and wine for the adults.
ETA: in that time frame, I'd do coffee, tea, juice, and mimosas for the adults. same juice for the kids.
I would not give any kind of soda to a kid before noon, but this is my father in me speaking to you right now.

Re: What drinks are you serving at your DC's bday party?
For a 10am party, I would still skip the OJ and get a sprite instead. And water bottles (the little ones).
We're having an afternoon party and I'm planning on:
Juice boxes Coke/Pepsi Diet Coke/Pepsi Sprite or Orange Water bottles Beer
