Colour me Cocktail

It’s almost Summertime here in Australia and nothing gets you ready for the warmer months like a cool, refreshing cocktail. But whether your wedding day falls in the heat of Summer, the cool of Spring or the brisk of Winter, no reception is complete without a delightful cocktail to welcome your guests.

The beauty of these alcoholic delights is the fact that they are colour coordinating. Having a Pink and Green wedding theme? Then surprise your parched guests upon arrival with a refreshing Watermelon Cooler or a crisp Appletini. Or rather, warm your guests in the cooler months with a Hot Sake Sour or a Coffee Cosmopolitan. Whatever the theme or the mood you want to set, nothing beats a colourful drink in one hand while you chat and mingle.

Aside from choosing the perfect coloured cocktail to match your theme and the many tireless hours toiling over which flavours to use, here’s one last idea to make your beverage stand on it’s own two feet. Give it a cute and quirky name and create a Signature Cocktail all of your own. It might be a Jeanie-Bellini or a Kate-Collada, a Rachel-Tini or a Connie-Politan. Whatever you chose, inject some fun into your reception and leave guests talking about your special sipper for years to come. ♥
