Floral Garnished Drinks

With the sun out and spring in full swing again (you never know in Vancouver), there's no better excuse to make some light and yummy refreshments, decorated with pretty floral notes! But who really needs a reason, right?

We whipped up a quick and easy afternoon pick-me-up, garnished with spring flowers - so delicious we had to have olive it. It's amazing how easy it is to turn a drink from drab to fab with some color! And if you sneak in a little something extra, extra (like we did), we won't judge. Here are some of our favorite spring cocktails - don't forget to add flowers! Cheers!
