Spice it up with a Signature Drink!


I love the idea of a "Signature Drink" at a reception or event. It is a nice way to spice things up while adding to your theme or decor. Here are a few inpirational drinks featured in InStyle Weddings.
Kir Royale
½ oz. Chambord
4 ½ oz. brut champagne or sparkling wine, chilled
Pour Chambord into flute glass and top with champagne. For an optional garnish place partially split seedless red grape on rim.
Blood Orange Martini
3 oz. Charbay blood-orange vodka
1 oz. Cointreau 1 oz. blood-orange juice
Combine ingredients in shaker filled with ice; shake well. Strain into chilled martini glass. If desired, garnish with orange twist or blood-orange slice.
White Orchid
2 oz. vodka
2 tbsp white-cranberry juice
1 tbsp triple sec1 tbsp lime juice
Combine ingredients in shaker filled with ice; shake well. Strain into chilled martini glass. Place small orchid on rim as optional garnish.
