3 Batch Cocktails That Fit Your Wedding Budget

Think that cocktails are going to make you go broke at your wedding? Think again!
Here are three batch cocktails that will be a delicious addition to your reception. First Kiss is whiskey-based with a good whiskey by Maker’s Mark. Happily Ever After is vodka-based with some Prosecco to give it a bit of fizz. Whiskey Sour is a tried and true cocktail that people are familiar with so if your guests aren’t into your other themed drinks this is the safe bet. You can make up large batches ahead of time to serve over ice, or have your bartender make them up at the bar. A big thank you to BevMo Thirsty Times and A Practical Wedding for the recipes! We think you and your guests will agree these are totally yummy!
Each batch makes 40-60 cocktails.
