Signature drink ideas?

I'm trying to come up with a refreshing, not too sweet drink to server at our reception. I would like something spring since our wedding is in April and easy to make so we don't have to pay an additional cost for the drink.

I thought of a mojito ... does anyone have a great mojito recipe to share? Also considered a kachumber cooler, which has cucumber in it.

    I saw this morning on food network an iced tea cocktail...

    64 oz. iced tea
    32 oz. bottle lemon flavored vodka
    2/3 cup sugar

    mix it together in a pitcher, pour into glasses and top off with lemon-lime soda

    you could make a big batch and make it ahead it sounds like, sounds good if you like iced tea

    I saw that recipe, too.  It sounds great.  It might be a good idea to have a drink that coordinates with your wedding colors.  Check the food network website for some ideas.  Also, I saw a great champagne drink on My Fair Wedding with David Tutera.  It's a Pink Lady: Rose Korbell Champagne and pink lemonade.  Hope this helps.

    Thank you! This sounds very similary to a "half and half" with alcohol, which would be great since we both love half and halfs.

    I'm a big fan of pomegranate mojitos.  A white wine sangria is also a really great spring drink, and really easy to whip up in large batches.
    This is a neglected planning bio.
    This is a belated married bio, with no reviews yet because I'm lazy.

    Sometimes I feel like people think that brides are delicate little flower princesses who get all dressed up and pretty for one special moment of their dreams, when really they're just normal people who just happen to be getting married. Things shouldn't have to be sugar-coated for grown-ass women. -mstar284

    i LOVE tom collins . It's basically an alcoholic version of lemonade.  It's kind of an old school drink, but it's yummy.
