![Last night we hosted an end of Fiscal Year Hogwarts Happy Hour celebration at the house. We had a home filled with colleagues (you know, gluten eaters), and not a single person complained about our GF menu! Ok, well... maybe people wanted beer 🍺 but we offered BUTTERBEER & hard cider, wine, and liquor so I think they survived 😉
.
Menu swaps:
• Bertie’s Botts Beans were really just @costco Jelly Belly’s.
• Wizarding World Cookies by @lifesabatch who makes the BEST #glutenfree cookies I’ve ever had AND they’re so cool and gawgeous! [she ships!].
• Cheese sticks cut into frayed ends & @glutinofoods pretzels made adorable broomsticks.
• Weasley’s Dragon Roasted Nuts were a fun and easy healthy snack.
• Cruciatus Curse Crudités obvs.
• Leaky Cauldron’s Roast Pig was smoked belly [see Beyond Bacon for recipe].
• and we microwaved Kettle Corn for Butterbeer Popcorn.
.
For drinks we served:
• Our favorite local @boldrockhardcider & • Made Apple Cider in a crock pot (apple juice + mulling spices) and had Fireball out for people to add in - a big hit for this time of year!
• My favorite drink was the @mcclintockdistilling gin & “soda” which we made with muddled Sage, homemade raw organic sugar simple syrup and lime @lacroixwater,
• and @zevia Cream Soda was the base of our Butter Beer floats [recipe: http://realeverything.com/better-butter-beer-with-pecan-praline-ice-cream-and-butterscotch-sauce/ ]
.
Menu was perfect finger foods and several people commented they were surprised everything was gluten free. It was definitely elevated with having fun names on the menu & card labels - all made by @backalleyfinds <—- check her out, she makes all my crafty stuff!
