How much drink would you allocate for a party?

i think a litre per person is about right.. but still have back up! what about flavoured mineral water as well.

i'd work on a litre or more per person - and have LOTS of water available (not sure of the quality of Sydney water, but we make sure to have bottled water when we have drinkies) - if you have people drinking, it's good to have water for them over night or early morning (or if like me, i drink a good half litre before sleep to flush out the hangover). for those that aren't used to lots of sugary drinks, they might have a glass of softdrink and then a drink of water in between...

Don't forget your tea & coffees! And cocoa for the PJ party ....

I generally work out what I think I need (I go by the alcohol units recommendation - 1 drink every hour) and then add 50% so I don't run out.

If you get ice and crush it in blender etc, it extends the drinks as well as being a bit spesh
