Baubles & Bubbly :: The Cocktails

So excited to unveil another colorful element of the grand opening  party of Kendra Scott‘s flagship store. If you caught yesterday’s introductory feature, you already know that the event was a spectacular affair brought to life in a festive spectrum of jewel tones. Up next: the tasty candy-inspired cocktails that kept guests repeating, One more, please! Hand-crafted by Lucky 13 Cocktail Co. and accessorized with rock candy stir sticks & rainbow sugar on the rims, The Savvy Freshen Up and the Cotton Candy Cosmo fit right in. Lucky for us, we’ve got the recipes…

 

For all the baubles & bubbly details, peruse the eye candy, the invites, & the flowers

From Athena at Lucky 13, “Creating cocktails to specific theme’s is always fun.  The Cotton Candy Cosmo was a true challenge as I don’t normally create sweet cocktails.  My goal was to craft a cocktail that would create a playful nostalgia and mimic the colorful Kendra Scott jewels.  It came out jewel-tone pink and brought back favorite memories of fun times – exactly my end desire.”

• .25 oz DeKuyper Razzmatazz
