Super Bowl Party Ideas

January 24, 2018 by Natalie 2 Comments

Super Bowl Party Ideas

I’m so excited to be teaming up with Bai for this post to bring you some fun Super Bowl Party Ideas. If you’re hosting a Super Bowl gathering or heading to a friends house, these DIYs and recipes should be a part of your goodie bag of tricks. I’m breaking down some fun, totally easy ways to gussy up that Sunday football fest in style!

Bourbon Salted Caramel Popcorn

Bourbon Caramel Popcorn

6 cups popped popcorn

cooking spray or parchment paper

6 tbsp. butter

1/3 cup dark brown sugar

3 tbsp. corn syrup

1/4 tsp. salt

1 tsp. vanilla extract

4 tbsp. bourbon

Bourbon Salted Caramel Popcorn - Super Bowl Party Ideas

Preheat the oven to 300°. Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper. Pop the popcorn and transfer it to a large bowl. Heat the butter, sugar, corn syrup, and salt in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring frequently. Once the mixture starts bubbling, cook for one minute more. Remove from heat and add the bourbon and vanilla. Stir and pour over the popcorn. Stir until popcorn is nicely coated and then transfer to the baking sheet, spreading out to an even layer. Bake for 35 minutes, stirring halfway through. Let cool and serve in a bowl or cute football snack bags. Store leftovers in a sealable container — if you have any leftovers.

Simply paint line on a brown paper bag to resemble a football. Let dry and use to serve your Bourbon Caramel Popcorn or to send guests home with a Super Bowl goodie bag.

scissors

hot glue gun and glue sticks

DIY Football Field Tray - Super Bowl Party Ideas

Cut the astroturf to the size of the inside of your lucite tray. I found my lucite tray onsale at HomeGoods for $12.99! Cut a strip of duct tape to the width of your tray and fold it lengthwise so it is smooth on both sides. Repeat until you have enough strips to fit your tray. My tray was small so I only did four. If you have a larger tray you can do five or six strips. Lay out each of the strips on the astroturf until they are evenly spaced to form the yard lines. Hot glue in place. Lay out the yard line number stickers. My stickers weren’t very sticky so I secured them with hot glue too. Place on either side of the yard line on both sides of the tray.

Chocolate Covered Strawberry Footballs - Super Bowl Party Ideas

Fizzy Bourbon Strawberry Lemonade

2 oz. Bourbon

3 oz. Bai São Paulo Strawberry Lemonade

top with club soda or champagne

I kept the cocktail easy peasy because I know hosting for game day can be tough. These can be made easily to order, built right in the glass or you can toss all the ingredients in a punch bowl for easy self-service.

If you want to take this cocktail a step further you can add the bourbon, Bai Sao Paulo Strawberry Lemonade, fresh strawberries and mint to a cocktail shaker then muddle and shake with ice. Strain into a highball glass over ice and top with club soda. If you’re feeling lucky you can swap out the club soda for champagne and kick the ABV up a notch.

Chocolate Covered Strawberry Footballs - Super Bowl Party Ideas

Chocolate Covered Strawberry Footballs - Super Bowl Party Ideas

Fill a coffee mug with the dark chocolate melting wafers and put in the microwave for 10 seconds. Take out, stir the chocolate, and return to the microwave for another 10 seconds. Repeat this until all chocolate has melted but be careful not to burn the chocolate. Take your strawberries by the stems and dip into the mug of chocolate. Place on a piece of parchment paper and let the strawberries set in the refrigerator for 10 minutes. Remove from the refrigerator and pipe the white cookie icing on to resemble footballs. Now you have the cutest and most delicious garnish for game day!

I’m so happy with how my Super Bowl Party Ideas turned out. Super bowl and super cute tend to not go hand in hand usually, but I feel like I totally scored with these! There is no better day to nosh on popcorn than on Super Bowl Sunday and the fact that it’s boozy popcorn makes it all the better. The fizzy bourbon strawberry lemonade is easy, delicious, and that chocolate covered strawberry football garnish is a win in my book! Serving in style is key and the DIY football field tray is a cute detail that pulls everything together. I hope this inspires you to make your game day festivities a little more fun. Ethan’s team (The Eagles) are going to the Super Bowl so I can’t wait to recreate these ideas for Super Bowl Sunday. xo

  • Happy Saturday everyone!! Wishing the office was currently as put together as my hallway from the Fall @oneroomchallenge, BUT it is coming along. Stay tuned and keep your eyes on my stories for more behind the scenes. Also: if you’re in the NYC/NJ area, I’m looking for a photographer to collaborate with for my #OneRoomChallenge reveal. DM me if you’re interested or tag someone who might be in the comments. 📸 @thaddeusrombauer

  • We made it to Friday!! I’ve been drowning in work all month and I’m finally getting my head just above water. Tomorrow afternoon I can take a deep breath because I’m golden. If you’ve ever been in the bar/restaurant industry then you know the term “in the weeds”, which means you are so busy beyond your capacity to handle a situation or cannot catch up. I kind of just live in constant state of weeds. Which bring me to why I deserve to drink all 3 of these Aloe Cucumber Coolers. Make your own by finding the recipe on the blog because I ain’t sharing. 😉 #ALinmyglass

  • One of my favorite Spring cocktails is a classic Gin Fix {gin, lemon, sugar} and last year I made one with infused ice cubes on @abeautifulmess. This is the perfect cocktail for warmer weather because it’s like a boozy lemonade — and the herbs and fruit from the ice cubes make it even more refreshing! Link to recipe for cocktail and infused ice cubes in my stories. #ALinmyglass #abmhappyhour

  • If there’s anything that can get me through the day until happy hour it’s certainly remembering that there’s @Johnniewalkerus Red up ahead. Coffee until Scotch! Who’s with me? But after I’m drinking one of my favorites – the Tattletale with @johnniewalkerus Red, honey, and bitters. ☕️💖🥃 #KeepwalkingAmerica #JohnnieWalkerAmbassador

  • We had a glimpse of Summer this weekend but unfortunately I worked the whole time. I’m taking this rainy Sunday as an opportunity to RELAX and kick my feet up with a cocktail (or 3). I’m brunching, planning out the week ahead + doing some pre shoot shopping. What are you doing with your Sunday? Does anyone else plan out their week and make daily task lists on Sunday? It helps me stay focused and organized throughout the week. #ALinmyglass
