It’s Super Bowl season, so it’s time to drink up and be merry. It doesn’t matter if you’re a fan of the Cincinnati Bengals or the Los Angeles Rams, on Feb. 13, 2022, we all raise our glasses and toast the grand spectacle of sports and entertainment that is Super Bowl LVI. The day will see football fans come together in hopes for an exciting gridiron clash – or friends hang out while watching the slew of commercials and the exciting Halftime Show.
While everyone has their own specific Super Bowl spread – some people need a seven-layer dip, others will go out for a six-foot-long sandwich – the party is not complete without a tasty beverage. While beer will flow on Super Bowl Sunday, for those who would prefer something more, here is a selection of cocktails to make your party the MVP of the season. (Though, we also throw in some beer suggestions for those who want to try something different.)

Pictured here is the perfect pregame drink: the YaVe Bloody Mary. The following drink was created by mixologist @cocktailswithmenyc and it’s easy to put together.
Salt the Rim:
· 1/2 tsp salt
· Lime wedge
Mix the Cocktails:
· 2 oz YaVe Blanco Tequila
· 3/4 cup spicy tomato-vegetable juice
· 2 dashes Worcestershire sauce
· 1 dash Tabasco
· Salt and pepper to taste
Garnish:
· 1 stalk celery
· 2 stuffed green olives
Method
· Rub a lime wedge around the rims of the cocktail glasses and turn them upside-down onto a salt plate to coat the rims. Next, fill the glasses with ice. Add YaVe Blanco tequila, spicy tomato-vegetable juice, Worcestershire sauce, tabasco, salt and pepper then shake gently, straining the cocktail into the ice-filled glasses. As a final touch, garnish with a stalk of celery and green olives.
