Signature Drink-Oregon

cce2011

My FI is from Portland but the wedding is in my hometown (Detroit).  I want to include some touches from home.  I'm getting a few cases of Dead Guy but was thinking of making our signature drink Oregon themed. 

Any ideas????

If your venue allows bottled beverages you could get some beers that are brewed here (or wine?)

If you have a pink drink, you could call it "The city of roses"

I love your idea!  Good luck!

What about something with marionberry? I know they won't be in season, but they could get them frozen. I love marionberry martinis and marionberry margaritas. Or you could do like a wine spritzer or something wine based using an Oregon wine.

I forgot to say that I had friends who one was from Colorado and one was from... Oh gosh... somewhere in the mid-west, so they did beers from each of those, then one from Bend to map out their journeys of life. I thought it was so cute!

There are some awesome local spirits you can use - for example, Indio makes a killer marionberry vodka and you can make it into an "Oregon Berry Drop" a la Seasons and Regions....
