This Week At The Shore:

December 29th - January 4th 2026

December 29, 2025

In partnership with

Good Morning Friends,
We’re in that in-between week where no one knows what day it is, leftovers are still happening, and the Shore is quiet in the best way. The decorations are up, the sweatpants are on, and New Year’s plans are officially set.

As we raise a glass to the year ahead, here’s to good food, great company, and a little sparkle at midnight. πŸ₯‚βœ¨ Whether you’re heading out for New Year’s Eve or keeping it cozy, here’s what’s happening around Monmouth and Northern Ocean Counties for December 29 through January 4.

And before we dive in β€” thank you for being here with us each week. We’re so grateful for this community and can’t wait to share more Shore fun in the year ahead. ❀️

Try the cocktail of the week! πŸ™‚ πŸ₯‚ 

πŸ₯‚ New Year’s Sparkler

Because ringing in the New Year should be easy, bubbly, and delicious.

Ingredients:
1 oz vodka (or gin)
Β½ oz elderflower liqueur (St-Germain works great)
Splash of fresh lemon juice
Chilled prosecco or champagne
Lemon twist or frozen grapes for garnish

Directions:
Add vodka, elderflower liqueur, and a splash of lemon juice to a champagne flute. Top with prosecco or champagne. Gently stir once. Garnish with a lemon twist or a few frozen grapes.

✨ Light, slightly floral, and perfect for midnight toasts β€” or β€œone more” before calling it a night. πŸ₯‚
