Fantastic Appetizers and Drinks

While turkey and pumpkins are a staple during Thanksgiving, there’s no limit to what you can serve. Even with apartment living spaces, you can transform your European-style balcony into the perfect dining area and take advantage of amazing mountains, rivers, and city views.

Some of the Thanksgiving apartment staples include roast turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, green beans, corn, sweet potato casseroles, cranberry sauce, and honey-glazed Brussels sprouts. Consider serving cocktails, canapes, relishes, salads, soups, chips, and dips for appetizers.

For the drinks, you can serve vanilla espresso martini, spiced cranberry rose spritzers or bourbon sour, punches, old-fashioned apple butter, and Thanksgiving sangria. You can also visit the downtown stores to stock some zinfandel, the traditional roast turkey drink.

Games, Shows, and More

Fun games with the family are what make Thanksgiving memorable. You can toss feathers, hunt for mini pumpkins, blow leaves with a straw, or solve tongue twisters around an outdoor firepit area. The usual Thanksgiving traditions (parades, feasts, football, etc.) are also worth trying.

Consider renting classic Thanksgiving movies or taking the family to the local Lovejoy Fountain, Keller Fountain, and Pettygrove parks. If you’re keeping the party indoors, simple activities like creating the décor together can be a bonding moment.

Think of fall/spooky aesthetics, roses, sunflowers, and helenium. You can work with traditional Thanksgiving centerpieces like rose gold pumpkin lanterns. Get inspiration from colorful fall leaves and harvests, use candles, change to fall lighting and linens, and feature baskets.
