Bridal Shower Drinks

Celebrating the bride begins long before she puts on the white dress and says “I do.” The months leading up to the wedding, the most important women in her life — moms, sisters, family and best girlfriends — come together to throw a bridal shower. From the invitations to the food and drinks, everything has to be perfect, but doesn’t need to cost a fortune. Simple, colorful and delicious mixed drinks can make any bridal shower memorable while staying on a budget.
Seagram’s Escapes suggests forgetting the punch bowl and mixing it up. For a delicious twist on traditional party drinks, hosts can whip up creative cocktails by using Seagram’s Escapes flavors as a base, then adding spirits, juices and fresh fruit. Serving drinks in champagne, martini or wine glasses also makes for an extra special bridal shower touch.
Whether you’re planning a bridal shower, bachelorette or engagement party, or just a night with the girls, hosts can impress guests with these easy-to-mix drink recipes:

*Hostess Tips:
– Drink recipes can be easily increased to serve more guests by doubling
or tripling ingredients.
– For easy serving, create any of the drink recipes above, pour into
chilled glasses and set out on a serving tray. Guests can help
themselves, while the cocktails serve as a colorful centerpiece at the
same time.
– Consider printing out recipe cards with the drink recipes you serve
for guests to take home as a bridal shower favor.
