If you are the host of a party of a hundred, what drinks will you serve? If you do not hire a professional bartender for the occasion, you may as well stay up all night behind the bar, mixing and serving drinks to your guests. To avoid this, plan ahead and find out recipes of the best large batch classic cocktails. Batch cocktails can be of different kinds, and try to choose a type that matches the party’s vibe.

Large batch classic cocktails:

• Golden ginger/lemon vodka punch
  This can be one of the easiest-to-make large batch classic cocktails for a big party. The yellow punch can keep your crowd swinging to the music and enjoying their drinks for almost half an hour before you have to start remixing drinks. However, this drink must be served chilled; so, it is best to start preparing it before your guests start coming in.
• Citrus/mint champagne
  While this sounds like a run-of-the-mill tropical cocktail, the champagne adds a certain sophistication to it. It can be perfect for summer brunches and also evening parties. It is the go-to cocktail for a host who loves to pamper his guests. If, on the other hand, you do not wish to splurge money, you can choose Prosecco or any sparkling wine in place of the champagne.
• Hard cider slush
  This is a cocktail that is slushie but bourbon-spiked. You should have the shaved ice ready so that when you serve this cocktail, you can simply coop this and pour it into the glasses.
• Pomegranate kombucha punch
  Pineapple juice and pomegranate blend beautifully together and give this cocktail drink a sweet-tart flavor; it is sure to be a huge hit with all guests. You can use gin, tequila, or white rum for this punch.
• Bourbon peach lemonade
  This sweet-tasting bourbon peach lemonade is a must at parties because it is made from all fresh ingredients. All you need to do is put the peaches, lemonade, and bourbon inside the blender to make the punch before serving it. You can sprinkle some thyme over this mix or add a peach slice to make it look even more special and tasty.
• Kalimotxo
  This unconventional cocktail is made using dry red wine, cola, and fresh lemon juice. It offers the perfect mix of sweetness and tartness and can be perfect for any holiday bar. You can adorn it with red maraschino cherries.
• Roasted cherry sangria
  This refreshing cocktail is also a big draw at parties because it can be served on any occasion. Since it is sangria, you must take some time to get soaked adequately for all the necessary ingredients. So, it is best to prepare this cocktail a day before the event. You can roast the sweet cherries inside the oven using some sugar and add them to a pitcher containing Kirsch liqueur and red zinfandel. This is finally decorated with orange slices and topped with cava rose, mint, and basil leaves.
