Whether you’re throwing a Super Bowl party at home, or expecting a few hundred people at your bar, here are the Super Bowl Party Cocktail Recipes you’ll want to be serving.

The Super Bowl is here again, and chances are you’ll be watching it—beverage in one hand, buffalo chicken dripping down the other. You’ve cooked up a serious spread, friends are crowding around the TV, and the air is thick with competitive tension. All you need now are some easy and delicious Super Bowl Party Cocktail Recipes.

Time for kickoff…

1. The Civetta Magra

This variation of the classic margarita is popular with just about anyone. Here, Ryan Lotz of No. 9 Park uses agave syrup instead of orange liqueur, which makes it a little sweeter.

2. The Bourbon Cider Punch

There’s nothing like a big batch of booze to keep your guests happy and the party going. Batch cocktails are the perfect Super Bowl party companion, and this one is the perfect antidote to cold February weather.

3. The B’s Knees

With the same base as the classic Bee’s Knees cocktail (lemon, honey & gin), Paulo Pereira of Brass Union adds some fresh components (basil and cucumber) as well as spiced pear liqueur to really make the flavor of this cocktail pop.

4. The Big Batch Beer Punch
