Party At Gatsby's
"And I like large parties. They're so intimate. At small parties there isn't any privacy" -F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby
The recent release of Baz Luhrmann's "The Great Gatsby" has sparked a "roaring" trend in the hospitality industry. From Speakeasy-themed cocktail hours to weddings fit for Daisy Buchanan, it's no secret that the Jazz Age has become the motif of the season. Here is a little inspiration to help you throw an event that would rival a Party At Gatsby's!

| No Gatsby-approved soiree is complete without champagne! Here is a recipe to a delicious 1920's Champagne Punch: 1 quart of Champagne (about two and a half 750ml bottles) 2 tablespoons of Orange Curacao 2 cups of sugar 1 cup of water The juice from two fresh squeezed lemons 2 cups of tea 2 cups of rum 4 tablespoons of brandy Mix the ingredients together in a punch bowl and top with soda water before serving. Who knows? This libation might even convince Leo to join your gathering!! |
