Things go better with a few good bubbles. Simplify the liquor shopping list: Skip setting up a full bar and instead offer a signature cocktail featuring just one or two types of spirits or wine. Pick from these classic Thanksgiving cocktails to keep guests sipping and engaging with one another. Go for a classic cocktail everyone can enjoy, or mix and match for a few selections. Just try not to go overboard with the booze. After all, there's a meal to be eaten, too.

6 Thanksgiving Wines to Drink Under $30

The bigger the Thanksgiving table, the more options you can have. These six wine pairings are incredible values for the money (and most will cost less at the store than the market price listed here). Each is designed to pair beautifully with a classic Thanksgiving menu—roasted turkey, herby stuffing, silky gravy, and butter mashed potatoes. Their flavors are crisp enough to cut through the decadent foods, but they won't compete with all the herbs and spices. When you're shopping at the market, tell the wine seller what you like and what you'd like to spend. He or she will guide you to the right bottle. There are not right or wrong questions or wines: Serve whatever makes you and your guests happy.
