Best Finger Foods for Holiday Parties

With the Holiday party season in full swing, I thought I’d bring you some suggestions for finger foods that are perfect to serve with drinks. 

Everyone likes to serve something a little different at Holiday parties. It’s always nice to experience a new taste treat that’s not the same old, same old standard party fare.

There are also a couple of bonus suggestions for economical drinks at the end of this list.

Choosing your party finger foods. 

Besides a veggie tray and a charcuterie & cheese board, we normally serve about 3 to 4 different hors d’oeuvres/finger foods at an evening with friends. I like to serve one cold and perhaps two or three hot selections over the course of the evening.

I find that’s a good balance between having some food always readily available and then “premiering” the stars of the show at intervals throughout the evening. 

You can of course, put them all out as a buffet but I find, serving something new about every hour keeps people more interested in the food and curious about what’s coming next. 

Make the ending memorable

I always like to serve a little sweet treat at the end too, like any of our Favourite Christmas Cookies or even Mini Turtle Cheesecakes. That final treat is often the most appreciated.

So here’s a few of my favourites that I think will be the hit of any Holiday get together.
