Whether it's a Wedding, Birthday party, corporate party, house warming party, BBQ, you get the point, a signature drink it a great "accessory" to your event! You have a theme, you have your colors and decor why not incorporate a drink into the mix. These can be alcoholic or non-alcoholic drinks, dress them up in a funky glass, come up with a fun name for them and have them setup at your event ready to drink!
