Drinks ideas to get your NYE party fuelled

TL;DR

  • Staying in with a small group and a bottle of something nice is a suggested alternative to reduce stress.
  • Champagne options include non-vintage (NV) for general purposes and vintage for greater expressiveness.
  • For prosecco, looking for 'brut' or 'extra brut' labels can provide a drier taste.

  • Korean soju is suggested as a shareable drink that can be sipped or mixed with light beer.
