Skinny Girl Birthday Parties

Plan a glammed out evening dinner with your girlfriends to — healthily — celebrate your birthday. Create a theme such as black and white or LBD (Little Black Dress), and encourage your guests to dress up for the occasion. With some glitzy Shindigz birthday party supplies and decorations, you can transform your home into a festive, fancy party atmosphere.

Imbibe

The evening must start out with tasty libations, and instead of sugary glasses of vino, serve Bethenny Frankel Skinnygirl™ cocktails or other low-calorie spirits. The Bethenny line has all kinds of ready-to-serve cocktails such as white cranberry cosmo, white peach margarita, sangria and pina colada. Pour the cocktails over ice into your prettiest martini glasses and cheers to your friends for another year of new experiences and great times.

If you’re in the mood for some cocktailing creativity, then mix up drinks with the Skinnygirl flavored vodkas that are low calorie, especially when “low calorie” are beautiful words for ladies who are figure and health-conscious.

Play the role of bartender and mix up these delicious skinny drinks for your special guests:

• Vodka Cran: Pour over ice a mixture of Skinnygirl Bare Naked Vodka, zero-calorie club soda, Ocean Spray diet cranberry juice and fresh lime juice. It’s light and refreshing!
   
• Pom-Tangerine Spritzer: Mix a shot of Skinnygirl Tangerine Vodka with a couple splashes of POM Wonderful 100 percent Pomegranate Juice and then top with zero-calorie club soda or sparkling water. Bethenny recommends garnishing with an orange for some aesthetic flair.
   
• Ginger Queen: Stir up a shot of Skinnygirl Cucumber Vodka with 1 teaspoon of freshly grated ginger and diet Shasta grapefruit soda. Sprinkle in some grated ginger and cheers to getting “less young” and more wonderful.

Indulge

To have a birthday dinner party, you must have dinner, and to have dinner, you must cook. Cook up a healthy, fancy feast full of penne pasta with a roasted beet sauce and kale, quinoa salad. Regale your birthday guests by serving an Italian dinner with a trendy, healthy twist. 

• Follow BevCooks.com’s Penne Pasta in a Roasted Beet Sauce recipe to create a divine blood-red pasta dish that bursts with flavorful sensations of beet, poppy seed, fresh mint and grated cheese. Using an assortment of ingredients, such as thyme sprigs, diced beets and vegetable stock, you’ll process diced, roasted beets, add cream and stock to make the sauce and pour over al dente-cooked pasta.

• Complement the ruby-colored pasta dish with a fresh kale, edamame and quinoa salad with a lemon vinaigrette dressing. AmbitiousKitchen.com’s quinoa salad recipe contains nutritious and nutrient-rich superfood ingredients that look stunning as a salad. Prepping takes about 30 minutes, so prior to your party, mix up a Ginger Queen cocktail, play some good tunes and start chopping.  The basil vinaigrette is an easy-to-make mixture of “lemon, garlic olive oil, basil, salt and sugar.”

Tasty homemade cocktails with creamy, beety pasta and quinoa goodness, you and your girlfriends will enjoy the skinny soiree from first sip to last bite. As the celebrating continues, turn up the jams, keep pouring drinks and cheers to another fabulous year of being you!
