The Frozen Slushy Summer Wedding Signature Cocktail

One way to save on the bar bill at your wedding reception is to serve a signature drink to wedding guests instead. The signature drink can be made ahead of time and since you know exactly what ingredients are required to make the drinks, you can limit the bar tab of an open bar from ringing up.

The Frozen Slushy

Ingredients:
2 cups white sugar
7 cups water
4 tea bags
2 cups boiling water
1 can frozen lemonade concentrate (12 fl oz.)
1 can frozen orange juice concentrate (12 fl oz.)
2 cups vodka

Pour water into a large saucepan and bring it to a boil. Add sugar and stir until it's dissolved. Then set aside and let it cool. Place teabags in 2 cups of boiling water and allow it to soak to the desired strength. In a large bowl, mix sugar water mixture, tea, lemonade and orange juice concentrate. Stir in vodka. Place mixture in freezer overnight. When ready to scoop some of the mixture into a tall glass and pour any clear, carbonated beverage over it (Sprite, 7Up, Sierra Mist, Ginger Ale, etc.).

Signature Drinks at Perfect Party Press

Perfect Party Press suggests a Signature Drink for your wedding.  A great little creative flair you can add to your wedding is to have a signature drink available for your guests to sip on during cocktail hour or throughout the evening of your reception. It's easier to plan out a signature drink to go with any theme you might be having for your wedding, but even if your wedding is theme-free then pick out a cocktail or mixed drink that you really love and give it a creative name. The name can be something catchy and unqiue that best descibes you as a couple or even something as simple as incorporating your favorite colors or your honeymoon destination. Let your bartenders/caterers know ahead of time about your signature drink and be sure they know how to make it. Make a display card next to all of the bars with a sign about the signature drink, what the recipe/ingredients are, and maybe even the inspiration behind the name of the drink.
