Easter Basket Cocktail
When I think about Easter, I think of family and friends, good food, good cocktails, too much candy, and a lot of pastel colors. With that in mind, I thought it would be appropriate to share with you a cocktail that is pastel in color and named for Easter. The Easter Basket combines a few simple ingredients that you might not usually put together into a cocktail but believe me, you will be glad you did!
