Serving a signature cocktail is a fun added detail to get folks chatting but it can be a budget helper as well. Rather than serving a full open bar, just serve beer and wine plus one sassy cocktail.
We're in the middle of the wedding season, and alot of my friends are having bachelorette parties, and pink is one of my favorite colors so I thought it would be fun to feature some pretty cocktails and drink garnish ideas in fresh shades of pink. These would be lovely signature drinks in addition to Girls Night Out parties, shopping parties, engagement parties & bridal showers !
Just realized that I forgot to post these pink drink recipes earlier from Barbie’s 50th Birthday Party – sorry about that!
