I love a good cocktail recipe. That's probably a given. My go to is Vodka Soda or Champagne anything but thinking I need to move these pretty numbers into the rotation this summer. A drink should look as good as it tastes in my opinion and these all fit the bill

1. Little Rose Spring Cocktail via Martha Stewart 

2. Lavender Mojito via Sugar and Charm 

3. Grapefruit Mojito via Martha Stewart 

4. Lime Sorbet Margaritas via Real Simple 

5. Blood orange Margarita via White on Rice

You know the old adage, it's four o'clock somewhere. Or is it five? Noon?

Pretty weather (read 80 degrees in Boston last week) makes me want to do EVERYTHING outside, including eating, drinking and being ever so merry. If only I had a view like above, I might even sleep outside. They don't have bears at the beach, right? But alas I'm in Boston and it's back to a chilly 45 degrees so for now I'll stick to dreaming of bright, shiny, happy tablescapes perfect for sipping mojitos. Summer can't come fast enough.
