If you'd like to add flair to your home party this fall, another way to do this is to set up a coffee bar for your guests. You can hire someone to do this for you or do it yourself.
If you do it yourself...
First, set up an area near your desserts. Lay out spoons, cups, and napkins. Saucers are often optional these days at events held in venues (event spaces for rent), but saucers are a good idea for coffee at home parties so your guests won't ruin your furniture by putting a hot or dripping cup on it.
Consider brewing the coffee with strips of orange zest for added flavor.
Then set out cream in a decorative pitcher, brandy, and several other liqueurs such as kirsch, Kahlúa, Triple Sec, Tía María, and amaretto to stir into the coffee.
In small bowls offer loose sugar or sugar cubes (if cubes provide tongs), whipped cream, grated chocolate, and cocoa powder. Lay a small spoon in each bowl for guests to serve themselves. Add cinammon sticks as stirrers in another small bowl.
Impressive and fun for guests as they decide what they want in their coffee, without being too much work.
Enjoy!
