Keep your buddies happy with these Super Bowl batch cocktails
For busy days, we love a pre-batched drink — especially a punch.
These recipes from Hennessy for game day feature cognac along with fruits and other ingredients to make large amounts of punch that are perfect for a party. There’s one option for an eight-person serving of Sunset Punch, and another for a whopping 20-person serving of Brandy Punch.
You can mix up a big batch of drinks before everyone arrives, then pour everything into a bowl and provide a ladle and cups for your guests to help themselves. That way, you can enjoy the game without having to worry about serving drinks for everyone all day.
