Beverages for socialising are usually uncomplicated, with easily approachable flavours that don’t necessarily need to be accompanied by food. They also include beverages that suit a party atmosphere.

Pale, fresh and mild cheeses are best enjoyed with similarly fresh and mild beverages. For example, a crisp and acidic white wine, a light red wine, or a flavoursome beer.

The general rule for pairing a dessert with wine is that the wine should be a little sweeter than the food. Otherwise the flavour of the wine will be lost and it will taste very acidic. It’s also worth trying beer with desserts.

In general, fruit and berries are best accompanied by light beverages that will echo their sweetly fresh and fruity flavours.
