Signature Cocktails have been around for awhile. You seen ‘em. You’ve sipped em. I urge you NOT to overlook them! ‘Cause there are so many reasons, to consider your own creation…
- To accentuate your color scheme (obvious, no?!)
- To salute your story, your history or your lifestyle (hence, the cock-”tale”)
- To add nostalgia, charm and whimsy
- To avoid an open bar, with a fun and cute alternative
- To play up your theme, setting or environment
Don’t be afraid to think outside the box!
Consider naming it after your favourite place, your pet names or a nod to your family heritage. Or recreate a coffee shop, reminiscent of your go-to beverage and location. How about a “Build your own cocktail station,” the perfect DIY activity. There’s late night fancy pairings, like coffee with mini donuts on a stir sick. Or old fashioned canister displays, utilizing props and unique furniture pieces. Perhaps a traditional High Tea service with a custom signature blend. Bonus: they could double as a take home favour.
The opportunities are endless, if you grab your thinking cap. ’cause when it’s personal, it’s priceless and your guests will love you for it.
Happy Sipping!
ps: The above recipe is a personal favourite: sweet. sour. refreshing. nostalgic. Perhaps it’ll find its way into your heart also.
