So, for the USians here, what drinks are you serving at Thanksgiving? I always end up with a crowd as we are centrally located and have a big family. I will get a great Cabernet, a sweet white wine for my ex mother out-law who always asks for white wine then says it's too dry, beer of course, still working on the house cocktail and non alcoholic drinks.

Always start with a spritz of some sort, mimosa or similar.

Tried a really good pineapple drink (it's in another post) and it's great but I don't want to juice pineapple, andthe tepache will be too dry or gone by then.

Still thinking about this. I do have time to make more ginger beer by then. But I'm thinking to make that one of the non-intoxicating drinks.

In previous recent big gatherings I've made a pineapple drink, a pear and ginger, a ginger and Chartreuse. I am cooking and not willing to also be a bartender so need a pitcher of something for sure. Not many of my guests like wine, the beer drinkers are all set, they bring more than enough. I can get just about anything in terms of ingredients.

We have vegans so besides turkey the food slants toward mushrooms/potatoes/lentils.

Sorry, this got long, just looking for ideas, will put my trials in this thread and also please ask here if you are also looking for ideas.
