We're having a Twin Peaks party and need themed food and drinks.
We're looking for cocktails, beer, snacks, and anything else tasty as long as it references Twin Peaks or appears in the show. The party will be more booze + board games than dinner event. Help us come up with cocktail recipes and noms!
On the menu right now is:
Dietary restrictions: vegetarian.

Best answer: For cocktails, you'll want to serve some Black Yukon Sucker Punches.
Ben and Jerry's food obsessions are a great source for snack ideas - the leg of lamb with crushed garlic and mint is out, but you could do some baguettes with brie and butter, smoked cheese pigs, carrots, pecan ice cream.
And of course, anything with creamed corn.
Have fun! It's a great time to be a Twin Peaks fan!

Best answer: You've got pie, but do you have the official Twin Peaks Cherry Pie?

Best answer: You could serve the Black Russians alongside White Russians and call them the Black Lodge and White Lodge, respectively.
Any red drink (anything with cherry, pomegranate or Campari, I'm partial to a negroni) can be The red room.
An Arnold Palmer, with alcohol, or just tea and lemonade, makes a good Laura Palmer. If you want to add a little blue curaçao and wrap the glasses up in plastic wrap, all the better.
If you like Brie, you can serve the all important brie butter baguette sandwich
Top deviled eggs topped with an olive or jalapeño slice and call them One Eyed Jacks. This also works with fried egg in toast.
Add a cherry pie and a damn fine cup of coffee for dessert, and you've got this!
