Event glassware: Set out the right glasses for your event, like tall for cocktails, highball or collins glasses for mixed drinks or sodas, short tumblers for straight pour of liquor on rocks, martini glasses for martini or some classic coctails, red and white wine glasses for wine or wine cocktails, mugs for specialty coffee etc.
Fill pitchers with prepared drinks: Mix all sippers you can in advance and store them in the refrigerator for quick pouring.
Have garnishes ready: Prepare garnishes like fresh herbs, olives, citrus slices and berries and refrigerate them until needed.
Have ice available: Place ice in a bowl or bucket along with tongs on the drinks table so guests can help themselves.
Keep it simple: When planning mixed drinks or cocktails, stick to straightforward recipes with minimal ingredients. Making complicated beverages or cocktails for a crowd is no fun at all, and might lead to a disastrous flap.
