I personally believe that Vodka is the new water. I mean, who drinks water anymore? Athletes don’t even drink water, they drink fluorescent drinks. Might as well make your work out a little fun and add a splash of Belvedere.

Whenever I have people over I always make sure I have these things on hand…

2 Bottles of Red Wine

2 Bottles of White Wine

1 Large bottle of Belvedere

1 Bottle of Sapphire Gin

1 Carton Orange Juice

1 Bottle Cranberry Juice

1 Faucet full of Water

You should spend about $10 – $15 per bottle on the wine. If your guests are smart they won’t come empty handed. People always ask me what they can bring. I always say “booze” don’t say wine! Booze is much more general. If you say wine, you might miss out on a nice bottle of scotch that you can add to your collection. Guests usually bring 1 bottle per person or couple. That should be enough to last you through dinner. You start out with your wine first, when you run out you put out what your guests brought you. You’re hoping they spent at least $20 for the bottle since they’re getting a free meal. If you have a really cheap friend, make sure you put theirs out first. Put them on the spot with their bottle of wine and say “This is from Gary”, cork it and pour them the first glass. That’ll teach them! When you run out move on to vodka drinks. Mix vodka with anything, it doesn’t matter by this point of the night you’re moving everyone from tipsy to belligerent.
