These Boursin-stuffed mushrooms are not only easy to make, but everyone will love them. The plate will be gone in 10 minutes or less. If you're a dirty martini lover, turn your favorite drink into a dip!

Tips for making cocktails in advance for holiday parties.
Prep your syrups. You can easily make any simple syrups you may need 2-3 days ahead of time.
Set your bar up. Similar to simple syrups, if your home allows it, you can always set up your bar ahead of time. I love putting this brown kraft paper down and either writing what's on the bar so people can properly help themselves, or you could decorate it all fun and cute for the holidays!
Pre-batch any drinks. Drinks that don't include anything fizzy, such as prosecco or soda water, can be pre-batched a day or two before. Be sure to store it in an airtight container in the fridge.
