A cocktail hour is even more celebratory with signature drinks dedicated to the bride and groom, and the occasion of their wedding. I've always loved the idea of a single signature drink, but here lately I have suggested my clients implement martini bars that offer a plethora of options and tastes. This is also an awesome wow-factor addition for engagement parties and bridal showers. Guests love the novelty and will definitely have fun with it.
Here are a few of my favorites, along with ingredients:
* 2 ounces London dry gin
* 1 ounce dry sherry
* 1 dash orange bitters
Sealed With A Kiss
* 2 ounces chocolate liqueur such as Godiva or Crème de Cacao
* 1.5 ounces vodka
* 1 Hershey's Kiss
Blushing Bride
* 1 ounce peach schnapps
* 1 ounce grenadine
* 4 ounces Champagne
Wedding Cake Martini
* 2 ounces vanilla vodka
* 1 ounce pineapple juice
* 1 ounce cranberry juice
* 1 teaspoon artificial sweetener (1 package)
The Proposal
* 2 ounces vodka
* 1 ounce triple sec
* Squeeze of fresh lime juice
* Splash of cranberry juice
