Ah, the Super Bowl. For many, it’s so much more than a sporting event. It’s a time for friends and family to gather and socialize, enjoy great food and drinks, and, of course, watch football.
And let’s face it – without the food and drinks, your Super Bowl party is not a party.
Of course, every Super Bowl party has its staples: beer, chips and salsa, sliders, et cetera. But if you want to host a party for the books, you’ve got to provide cocktails. And because you’re not like other Super Bowl party hosts, you want to serve good cocktails – the kinds that were meant for an event like this.
Picking the PERFECT cocktails to serve at your Super Bowl party? It’s a daunting task, we know. That’s why we’ve made it easy for you. Keep reading for the down-low on the 5 best cocktails to serve at your Super Bowl party, and how to make them. Easy peasy.

Bourbon Caesar
Bourbon what what? Yeah, we went there. Trust us on this one. Let’s start off by explaining the difference between a Bloody Mary and a Bloody Caesar. A Caesar is a slightly sweeter, more mild take on the Bloody Mary (made with clam juice, and it’s delicious). Pair a quality Bloody Caesar mix with some quality bourbon, and you’ve got a warm, oaky cocktail that was made for events just like this.
Ingredients (per serving)
- 2 Dads Premium Bloody Caesar mix (4 oz.)
- Bourbon (1.5 oz)
