19 Snacks and Sips for Watching the 2026 World Cup

The 2026 FIFA World Cup finals are on Sunday and I’m busy planning my game day menu. Are you as sad as I am that the tournament is almost over?

The energy around the World Cup in the US this last month has been downright invigorating. The country has been hit with a jolt of adrenaline, as we’ve joined together in our appreciation of ranch dressing and fandom of Norwegian star Erling Haaland; said goodbye to the ultimate underdog team that stole all our hearts (Cabo Verde and its tireless goalkeeper, Vozinha); and basked in the brotherly love between party-hard hermanos Mexico and South Korea.

Even if you haven’t been following along, well, it isn’t too late. In this final week of the World Cup, gather your friends who love soccer, and your friends who just love Buffalo chicken dip. Both important here! Below we’ve got snacks paying homage to the semifinalist teams, plus some watch party standbys and drinks too. Soak in the collective joy, then bottle it up for the next four years.
