New Year’s Eve Drinks
As we are a family-friendly site, we are happy to offer some delicious non-alcoholic drinks the whole family can enjoy. Try something warm and creamy to sip on while playing games or watching a movie. We also have sparkly and pretty cold drinks to serve up in a stemmed glass for a New Year’s Eve toast.
New Year’s Eve Appetizers
Your food for New Year’s Eve must include appetizers. In fact, if you only served drinks and appetizers, your New Year’s Eve menu would reach perfection. These finger foods and snacks are easy to eat during all of your New Year’s Eve festivities. Set them up buffet style for guests to snack on during the evening, or surprise guests by bringing them out one at a time during the night.
Charcuterie Boards and Platters
A fancy spread of fresh deli meats, prosciutto, salami, a variety of cheeses, vegetables, fruit, and candies is a great way to provide something for everyone on the guest list. Garnish with some fresh herbs to add some color. You can copy one of our platters here or substitute ideas of your own. This is where you can have fun with your own creative and unique ideas and tastes!
Finger Foods
An assortment of hot finger food for New Year’s Eve parties is always a hit. Keep foods warm in a crock pot or in the oven during the party, and set out a plate at a time. Be sure to provide vegetarian and gluten free options.

Is party a party without chips and dip? We don’t think so. Here are four of our all-time favorite dips that you are sure to love.
New Year’s Eve Dinner Ideas
We have some delicious ideas for your main course on New Year’s Eve.
