Create a warm and festive environment with lots of light and classic party music that everyone can dance to. Set up a comfortable seating area with chairs or couches, or even an outdoor patio if you have one. Have plenty of food ready to snack on, such as chips and dips or something more substantial like pizza and wings. Invite your friends to bring their favorite drinks ” hard liquor, beer or wine ” whatever they prefer! Also make sure there are lots of different mixers on hand such as soda, juice, tonic and various syrups. Supply enough cups, shot glasses and shot measures (for tequila) so that everyone has enough for the games!

Tips and Tricks

Starting conversations:
Before the game starts, it may be helpful to ask people in the group what they want out of their drinking game experience. Questions like “What type of stories do you want to hear?” or “What topics should be avoided in the game?” can help get people talking and help prepare them for a comfortable evening of fun. One great way to foster conversation is to start with a round of “ice breaker” questions. This helps everyone get familiar with each other quickly, as people in the group get more comfortable and start to open up about subjects that interest them.

Measuring individual alcohol consumption:
It is important for players of adult board drinking games to know their limits when it comes to alcoholic beverages. A great way to monitor individual alcohol consumption levels is using shot glasses (or another measuring device) when pouring drinks for each player in the game. Also, if someone gets too drunk too quickly simply have him/her slow down by having a lower strength drink, or abstaining from drinking during certain rounds.

Maintaining a safe and enjoyable environment:
Creating an enjoyable yet safe atmosphere is key for any adult board drinking game activity. To ensure everyone has a good time while also remaining safe, take simple steps such as avoiding excessive drinking, assigning designated drivers that don’t drink alcohol during the night or encouraging everyone to drink plenty of water throughout the duration of the game. It may also be helpful to set rules regarding outside food and beverage items that can prevent unhealthy or unsafe choices such as sugary snacks or strong alcoholic drinks. Lastly, maintaining an appropriate level of noise control helps both maintain safety and encourages productive communication at all times – too much sound can over-stimulate potentially intoxicated guests while too little defeats the purpose of playing adults only board games!
