Check Out Our Super Bowl LVII Adult Beverages Roundup - Page 22

Now that Super Bowl LVII is finally here, the requisite gatherings and watch parties are surely taking form. With some of these parties, adult beverages are an expected pairing and we’ve got a nice roundup of drinks to add to the occasion. Super Bowl LVII is expected to be a high-octane clash of titans, with the 2024 AFC Champions Kansas City Chiefs facing off against the 2024 NFC Champions San Francisco 49ers. The Chiefs, led by quarterback Patrick Mahomes with Travis Kelce and Chris Jones on the other side, have taken their postseason momentum into being one game away from hoisting the Vince Lombardi Trophy once again after last defeating the Philadelphia Eagles at Super Bowl LVII. The 49ers, with standout running back Christian McCaffrey, quarterback Brock Purdy, Deebo Samuels, and a defense featuring Fred Warner and more will surely give Mahomes some issues if the words of analysts and observers ring true. While some NFL fans might be bummed that their favorite team didn’t make it to the championship game, they’re still going to be dialed in to see top athletes in action. To help bring a nice social boost to the party, we’ve got drinks below that are mostly focused on cocktails but we have some wines, beer, and RTD options as well. Check out our Super Bowl LVII. Let us know in the comments if you’re into anything from the list. — Photo: Getty
