refreshing summer cocktails


A friend of mine recently got married 
at Kamalame Cay in the Bahamas 
and then had a lovely wedding reception here 
in Newport Beach, at her parents house.  


One of the many delicious
drinks served that day
was a Pimm's Cup.

I’d never had that cocktail before,
but now it's now my favorite summer drink.

As party favors,
they passed out little handmade booklets
with the couple's favorite summer cocktail recipes.
I love this idea!  
Here’s a sampling...  
Pimm's Cup
Cucumber & Thyme Gimlet





Mojito

Maui Mai Tai


ciao! fabiana

    As a wanna be mixologist, I love this idea as a giveaway at a wedding. I've never had a Pimm's cup, but it sounds delicious and now I must try!
