8 Happy Hour Bites

There's something about January and drinking. Maybe it's the way it all starts (Happy New Year, everyone!), or maybe it's the fact that the holidays are over but winter wages on, making us chilly without the cheer. In any case, January's the month to grab a warm spiked drink and get your happy hour on. And of course, the best part of happy hour is the nibbles.

We say, throw the party, so you don't have to leave the warm house. Here are 8 recipes to match your January drinking, courtesy of the spirited home cooks' community at Food52. Happy happy hour!
