Whether you’re trying to go down those last
five pounds, looking for a healthier lifestyle or inclined to try something new;
there are healthy, tasty and relatively easy cocktail recipe options that work
well for any style of wedding. Today it’s become fashionable to try a variety
of spices to create a new subset of cocktails. It’s time for traditional mixers like Sprite
and Cranberry Juice to move over, now spices such as chili powder, lavender and ginger are
stealing the spotlight at the wedding reception!

If drinking chili powder seems a little
too adventurous to you and your guests (and I really don’t blame you) you can
find other healthy options that substitute soda with fruit juice, meaning a more
natural cocktail with less calories. A few options such as a
Fruit Salad Cosmo can be found at http://shine.yahoo.com/shine-food/3-delicious-wedding-cocktails-2571315.html.

A great suggestion is to have a couple’s
cocktail. Why not start your marriage with a great drink that your guests love
and that you can name whatever you want?! Have the taste of your drink match
your style as a couple; sweet, spicy, exotic or put a twist to a classic drink.
You can also make the color of your cocktail match a theme. There are so many different options that its easy to personalize your cocktail.
