I plan on incoporating up to three signature cocktails into my wedding. I would like them to go with my color scheme of green and pink. Anyone have any ideas as to any good cocktails recipes?
hey! i was a bartender and these are my suggestions - you should def decide what fruit flavors you like in your sig drink before you decide on drink style - cause nowadays you can can get "clear" colored flavors making your options ENDLESS!! =) here are some that come to mind:
strawberry mojitos
midori sours with watermelon ball garnish or strawberry
white cosmos with pink sugar rim and lime spirals (apparently white cosmos are the new thing - made with white cranberry juice of course!)
raspberry and lime margaritas
apple razz tini
kiwi straw martinis
see... the possibilities are ENDLESS!!! go girl do it all! this part is fun!

you can do clear drinks with a splash of grenadine for pink or lime juice for green.
awww i love pink and green together!

posted by amysue 640 posts 6 months agoI would just like to preface this by saying I'm not an alcoholic
:
Pink Panties (pink lemonade, strawberries, and gin. Some recipes use cream to make it a creamy drink)
Apple, Pomegranite, pink grapefruit cosmos (pink grapefruit is really good with a sugared rim)
Mojitos.
These might be helpful as well:

posted by shanorama 17 posts 6 months agoDo you want wedding-themed names? Or just cute names that go with the colors?
