My husband and I enjoy hosting the occasional party (especially around the holidays) and entertaining some of our friends & family members. I’m usually responsible for preparing the food and the Big E handles the bar and drinks.
Our guest post today is by the great folks over at Santa Margherita Wines and features two of their new cocktail recipes.

I love fruity recipes , and especially berries. Therefore, my favorite cocktail here would be the Summer Cup recipe.
These would be fun recipes to have at a party for some variety. I like Pinot Grigio so this would add some variety.
The Garden Cooler cocktail looks like a very light and Mellow Cocktail.. The only problem is I don’t recognize alot of the ingredients. Lol! Thank You for sharing..
That Garden Cooler recipe sounds really good and I love the look of it. Thank you for sharing these recipes they both sound really good and one my friends would all enjoy.
I’d like to try the Garden Cooler Cocktail Recipe. Or the other one. Or both. Good flavors.
My current obsession is blackberry juice added to drinks. It
s easy enough to make if you get out all of the seeds and tastes fantastic.
