Nautical New England Signature Cocktail: Ginny Gin Gin Punch

 

Summer is just around the corner… and I know what you’re thinking: I need a new gin signature cocktail! We love when our clients have fun with the signature cocktails for their wedding. As their wedding planner, they’re always asking for our advice on what to serve as a signature drink. Let’s be honest: we never shy away from cocktail hour AND we feel its part of our job to research cocktails, we’re always up to do a little digging to find  the perfect gin signature cocktail for your wedding.

We came across this fabulous cocktail while getting lost on the Waiting for Martha blog. After a thorough taste test (and we mean thorough) this gin cocktail became one of our new favorites. Perfect for your summer-time Connecticut wedding, we styled this drink with some nautical flare.
