Easter Cocktails

Recommending cocktails for Easter isn’t as easy as recommending drinks for Saint Patrick’s Day. But here are some things people look for:

• (1) a good brunch cocktail like the Bloody Mary,
• (2) sweet dessert-type cocktails that hearken back to our old Easter-basket days, like a Chocolate Martini,
• (3) Spring or Easter-themed cocktails, like a White Lilly,
• (4) a light citrus or fruit-flavored refreshment that mirrors Spring, like the Clover Club.
