Are you having an Oscar Party? Not I, said the fly. Before kids, I made a point out of seeing every nominated film. Now, I would go see a movie like "Safe Haven" if it meant I could eat popcorn in a dark theater. But, if I were having an Oscar party, wouldn't it be fun to have themed cocktails for the Best Picture films? The nice people at Deustch Family Wine & Spirits have just that for you... see below for some tasty sounding adult beverages. For all alcoholic products listed in this post, go to the Deustch Family Wine & Spirits website.
