It’s not Thanksgiving, or even Friendsgiving for that matter, without a turkey as the centerpiece of your table. And if you need evidence to convince you that roasting a turkey in your college kitchen is possible, then I am here to be your living proof. 

I can assure you this apple pie will undoubtedly be the star of any Thanksgiving or Friendsgiving dinner. 

To do so, here is my take on the traditional sangria: the Apple Spice Sangria. This beverage incorporates traditional fall flavors—such as apple and autumnal spices—but its cool temperature and refreshing taste pair well with the warm weather.

Just like Damon, this cocktail is sweet, strong, and a little spooky. It’s the perfect drink for any Halloween party, pregame, or vampire-themed event. 

As a coffee fanatic, I’ve always loved espresso martinis. Not only do they help wake me up so I can stay out late, but the combination of bitter coffee and sweet Kahlúa creates the perfect sippable drink to enjoy at dinner, with dessert, or, you guessed it, getting ready for a night out.
