Frocktails: Pink Punch


I wanted a cheery spring dress and a drink to go along with it, and I found both. If I had a punch bowl and a garden to throw a party in, I'd be all set. This pink champagne punch is fizzy and refreshing. I love how all the flavors combine, and the St. Germain adds a little something special.

The painted lacebloom dress from Madewell is flirty, bright and comfortable and will carry me all the way through summer. I just love all those happy colors blended together in one sweet, floral pint.

Pink Champagne Punch

1 750 ml. bottle dry champagne
1 12 oz. can frozen lemonade concentrate
6 oz. St. Germain
6 oz. cranberry juice
2 tablespoons superfine sugar, optional
lemon slices or curls for garnish

Combine champagne, slightly thawed lemonade concentrate, St. Germain and cranberry juice. Chill for about one hour in the refrigerator. For added sweetness and fizziness, stir in superfine sugar before serving. If serving in a punch bowl, garnish with lemon slices, or for individual glasses, garnish with lemon curls. Makes 8-10 servings.
