Signature Cocktail Recipe for Your Next Event

Cocktails represent a significant portion of the cost for any event, so it’s important for event planners to be familiar with cocktails and drink recipes when planning a reception. By including a signature drink into special events, it helps make the occasion both memorable and cost effective.   But there are many different cocktails to choose: vodka, rum, tequila and more. The trick is to choose a signature cocktail that complements the meal while pleasing the crowd with your selection.
