Golden Oldies Party Drink Ideas
At your Golden Oldies Party , revisit the malt shop by serving up ice cream sundaes, milkshakes and ice cream and root beer floats. You can make milkshakes by mixing milk and ice cream in the blender. Use malted milk powder to make malted milkshakes. You might want to try a drink called the Golden Oldie, a rum drink that's easy to make at home. Just add dark rum and crème de bananes in a glass, and fill the rest with pineapple juice. Also be sure to keep plenty of bottled water available to your guests.
Golden Oldies Gift Ideas
At a party with a Golden Oldies Party Theme, why not give the gift of golden oldies? There are plenty of compilation CDs of music from the 1950s, featuring artists like Buddy Holly, Elvis Presley and Perry Como. You might even find vintage albums of these artists on vinyl records. You might even find posters of favorite music stars from the 1950s. These are great to frame and give as a gift. You can also give items like t-shirts, coffee mugs, key chains, baseball caps, and magnets featuring iconic 50s items, like girls in poodle skirts, vinyl records, celebrities, saddle shoes, and pink Cadillacs. Another idea is to give copies of popular movies from the 1950s, like “North By Northwest” and “A Streetcar Named Desire.”
Golden Oldies Party Theme
Keep the party theme flowing throughout each aspect of
the event. First, the party invitations set the theme and tone of
