Throwing a Super Bowl party is basically its own sport—and the only sport I’m even remotely good at. There’s the planning, the grocery lists, the mental math of how many wings are “enough wings.” (Answer: There are never enough wings.) The pressure of getting both the food and drinks just right is real. You want crowd-pleasing snacks and drinks that feel festive but don’t require you to play bartender during the commercials. That’s why I’ve become such a believer in a really good canned cocktail on game day.
