5 Signature Cocktails For Your Summer Wedding

Everyone loves a summer wedding; that’s for certain. But, is your bartender serving the right cocktails? In the summer, it’s important that your cocktails are both not only cool, but hydrating and tasteful at the same time. Try out these five cocktails below for the perfect combination: Blackberry Whiskey Lemonade. Summer and lemonade go hand-in-hand, but have you ever thought of adding whiskey to it? Oddly enough, it’s a perfectly delicious combination! You can serve this cocktail made-to-order, or have large pitchers on hand for quick pouring. Coconut Margarita. Your wedding doesn’t have to be a beachside one for guests to enjoy this cocktail. This creamy cocktail is made with coconut milk and water then it’s added kick of tequila blanco, triple sec, and fresh squeezed lime. Can you feel the ocean vibes yet? Rum Orange Swizzle. You can’t go wrong with freshly-squeezed oranges in the middle of summer. This one also just happens to be made with summer's booze-of-choice, rum! Perfect. After the rum, just add some fresh squeezed orange juice, a sugar cube, maraschino liquor, and some bitters and there you go! Bourbon Peach Sweet Tea. This one is especially great for anyone throwing a Southern or Southern-style wedding. Why, you ask? Well, you can’t go wrong with a classic sweet iced tea. This cocktail includes just that along with bourbon, peach preserves, and a dash of lemon juice. Yum! Grapefruit Ginger Spiced Rum Punch. If you’re having a big wedding, large batch cocktails can be a real lifesaver. This cocktail has just the right mix of flavors: tart, sweet, and slightly spicy. Can’t go wrong there. Alongside the rum, this drink includes ginger beer, sparkling wine for a nice fizz, and freshly squeezed grapefruit juice.
