Need advice for kid-themed cocktail party (for adults -- the kids will be in the THEME only).?
We're using our son's first birthday as an excuse to have a cocktail party with our adult friends (and no kids will be invited... but don't worry, he gets his own little party, too.). And we'd like to riff on the "kid birthday" theme by serving gourmet versions of kid food.
Besides mini hamburgers and gourmet mac and cheese, any suggestions for appetizers or even cocktails that follow the theme? (Or, heck, any other ideas we could use to take the theme a notch further?)
Thank you in advance...
My kids love orange juice or pretty much any purple drink. A Mimosa (orange juice with champagne) would be a great play on the OJ and a Plum Fizz ( 2 oz. soda water, .5 oz lime juice, .5 oz super-fine sugar, 2 oz. Plum flavored brandy) would be a good variation of the classic purple drink. Serve in a Kool Aid pitcher ; one can be purchased on Ebay.
Gourmet potato chips served in a lunch pail would be fun. You could use the lunch pails to serve a variety of items, like Pepperidge Farm cookies or peanut butter cups.
Mini grilled cheese sandwiches (use a variety of cheeses, brie, havarti, swiss, etc.)
A spaghetti salad is another twist on a kid staple that you could serve.
Good luck with the party!
