How to Drink at a Bat Mitzvah

A bat mitzah, a coming of age party for Jewish girls, takes place on their twelfth birthday. Following the religious observation in a synagogue, a celebration party follows. The celebration can be as loud and fun-filled as any generic birthday party. The selection of food and drinks at the party consists of all types of kosher, kid-appropriate fare. Here's how-and what-to drink at a bat mitzvah.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

1. Enjoy a drink named in honor of the birthday girl. Think of different monikers that include the bat mitvah girl's name, like "Judy's Extra Sassy Strawberry Smoothie."
2. Consult a party service to provide drink stations. Children's party services sometimes offer soda and smoothie stations where kids can mix their own drinks. Check your local catering and party services for information. Some companies will create a signature drink just for you.
3. Take plenty of time to plan the party. Most families take up to two years to plan a bat mitzvah. This will give you plenty of time to explore drink possibilities and experiment with your blender at home.
4. Make a list of drinks the birthday girl loves. If she likes apple juice, develop a drink using it as one of the ingredients. Remember to keep the drink components kosher. Most commercially available grape products aren't kosher, so look to companies like Kedem for grape juice. Jones Soda produces kosher sodas and other soft drinks.
5. Consume drinks in special glassware with colorful garnishes. Girls love fancy straws, little plastic animals that hang from the side of the glass and tiny flowers. Experiment with different edible garnishes like banana chips and maraschino cherries.
