New Year's Eve Cocktail Party

Menu email to a friend
It's New Year's Eve so celebrate with a cocktail party for friends! These crab canapés will start the night in style. A creamy crab and shallot mixture tops buttery brioche toasts, garnished with caviar. Use cut pieces of chives or a single parsley leaf to add an accent of green color. Everyone flocks to shrimp at parties so why not give them a new twist on the same old boiled shrimp and cocktail sauce. This recipe bakes shrimp coated on one side with sesame seeds and serves them with an Asian-inspired ginger-soy dipping sauce. Be sure to make plenty as they will go quickly. Your guests will thank you for a healthy alternative to the usual heavy hors d'oeuvres. This recipe involves blanching asparagus spears and elegantly displaying them with a creamy dipping sauce. You can offer other dips as well from a smooth humus to a roasted red pepper puree. If white asparagus are available, blanch some of those for a dramatic effect. Sage, juniper berries and sweet vermouth make this chicken liver spread irresistible. If you prefer a chunkier pate, stir finely chopped hardboiled egg and red onion into the puree. Plan ahead and surprise your guests with the taste of pineapples in their Cosmopolitans. The flavor gets infused in the vodka which then combines with cranberry and lime for a pleasantly pink cocktail. Garnish glass rims with thin wedges of fresh pineapple - they'll look and taste sensational. Happy New Year!
