Hop behind the bar with these Denver Broncos themed cocktails.

What’s a Super Bowl without a Super Bowl party? If you’re reading this right now, I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that you’re either attending a get-together or hosting your own little shindig. I’m also gonna say that you might very well be a Denver Broncos fan. If all that is true, then I’ve got you covered, chief. Here are some Denver Broncos-themed cocktails for the big game.

Note: I’m an eyeball kinda drinker. Not one to use jiggers and ponies. Pour the booze first and the mixers second. If it’s too strong, either suck it down and do better next time, or give it to a friend. If it’s weak, well then add a couple extra fingers of booze, or maybe an extra second of pouring.
