Yummy food:
Festivals call for yummy foods! From sweets to savouries, make sure you have everything that will keep your friends warm and happy. Make use of all the harvest ingredients and products to serve up a delight. You can give the traditional fare a miss by going for exotic sweets and pastries! After all, it’s a party…right?
Theme it up!
Just because the party is indoors doesn’t mean that your friends can’t dress up. Set a theme so that everybody has to turn up in a particular fashion. That will not only make your party a hit, but also give your friends a chance to forget the gloomy weather outside.
Sugarcane mocktails!
Yes! Prepare your mocktails with sugarcane juice as your base. As Lohri is famous for sugarcane, jaggery and pulse dishes, what better way to make use of sugarcane than a delicious mocktail? And if you’re planning to go overboard, mix it with a little bit of clear alcohol for some rocking punch.
Bonfire games:
Set up a bonfire in your backyard or downstairs and gather your friends around it for a fabulous game of cards and truth and dare. Ask everybody to get stuff that they would like to play and have a laid back, yet fun party. Nothing beats the biting cold than a warm ‘sitting-around-the-fire’ time with friends.
Say it with a goody bag:
Make sure that you see your friends off with a goody bag with sweets and stuff. Don’t forget that they have come all the way in the cold and gloom to make your party a hit. So, appreciate their efforts with goodies.
