Whether you’ll be throwing a Hollywood-worthy bash for your friends or be curled up on the couch, we’ve got the perfect cocktails to compliment your night. Each of the following creations pays homage to some of this year’s newcomers and also the staples; and assures that you’ll have the perfect drink in hand no matter which show gets your vote!

The five-part, three-week HBO mini-series Mildred Pierce was packed with great performances pulling in 21 nominations; making it the lead in programming. The best way to celebrate should be obvious: with a classic cocktail made with one of the world’s most awarded rums - Flor de Cana from Nicaragua.
