The holiday season is upon us and that means it’s time for celebration, family gatherings and lots of holiday festivities!

There are so many great ways to make the most of this season and nothing is better than making memories with a delicious glass of Butternut by your side!

We’ve picked out our favorite holiday entertaining ideas to get you in the holiday spirit and add some joy and cheer to your life. Pour yourself a glass of Butternut and start to fill out your holiday schedule!

Game Night
Butternut was made for Game Nights! Crowd-pleasing and always delicious, our wines are perfect for hosting family and friends and adding some games to the mix is a perfect way to get everyone to unwind and have a good time. No matter what your daytime plans are, end your nights with Game Night and you’ll have an entire season full of new memories created.

DIY Holiday Potpourri
Invite your friends over and make holiday potpourri together! Everyone can show up with their favorite bottle of wine (for enjoyment!) and an item for the potpourri – fruit, cinnamon sticks, pine cones, glitter, etc. You can spend your time drying out the fruit in the oven, decorating pine cones and dividing up the potpourri to use as gifts or for yourself. This is a fun activity no matter what holiday you’re celebrating and a great way to make DIY gifts for family and friends!

Cookie Exchange
It’s always fun to bake cookies with a bottle of Butternut by your side, but don’t forget about the fun of having your family and friends over to exchange cookies that you’ve all been making on your own! A cookie exchange is a lot of fun because you can spend most of your time socializing and catching up, but with a special holiday treat involved! Have everyone bring their favorite bottle of wine and homemade cookies and spend your time wine tasting and creating amazing cookie platters.

Charcuterie Night
Charcuterie Night is a Butternut classic and a great way to celebrate the holidays with family and friends. Everyone gets to bring their own handmade charcuterie board, but instead of meats and cheeses – have them all be different themes! Fruit, dessert, savory or sweet – the options are endless and the more creative they get, the more fun you’ll have. This is also a great time for some wine pairings, so make sure to have different Butternut wines on hand!

Christmas Tree Decorating
If you’re going to be decorating a Christmas tree this year, turn it into a holiday entertaining opportunity! Decorating is one of the greatest ways to get into the holiday spirit and it’s a wonderful time to spend with family and friends. Choose your favorite bottles of Butternut and create a new tradition.

No matter what you decide to do this year, we hope you have a holiday season that is full of cheer and delicious wine. Happy Holidays from Butternut!
