When was the last time that you had an “adult drink?” It’s been years for me. My last was at a wedding and that was only the classic champagne toast. In all honesty, I’m really not all that fond of much more than iced tea and water but when I was offered the opportunity to try out a certain, little fancy product, I couldn’t say no.
Designs by Lolita was started after a group of girlfriends enjoyed a girls night out. Each glass is hand-painted and represents a different drink, a different woman, a different personality. All donned with amazingly cute designs, they are a great addition to any celebration. These glasses have caught my eye more than once since I first learned of them and, surprisingly, as adorable as they are, I have yet to pick one up. Until now that is. The great team over at Lolita sent me one of their newest summer Love My Cocktail Glasses collection. Knowing that I’m highly outnumbered in a house full of guys, they were kind enough to gift me with the prettiest (and pinkest) glass of the bunch. I love that, regardless of its contents, the Sea Breeze glass is a gorgeous new glass just for Mom!
I was so excited to have something just for me that I initially missed the fact that there is actually a recipe on the bottom. What?! Yes, really! The Sea Breeze glass has (wait for it…) the recipe for a “sea breeze” cocktail printed right on the bottom of the glass! It’s pretty neat, right?
The Sea Breeze recipe reads as follows:
- 1 ½ ounce vodka
- 1 ounce grapefruit juice
- Fill with cranberry juice
The full Designs by Lolita Love My Cocktail Glasses collection includes a wide variety of glasses, designs, and coinciding recipes. Some of the other available options are Mai Tai, Mojito, Piña Colada, Hurricane, Long Island Iced Tea and the Rum Runner. Each glass features its own individual recipe found along the bottom of the cup.
Whether you plan on using it as an everyday glass or hope to use it for a little bit of “me time,” these glasses are certainly my new preferred choice and I highly recommend them. They add a bit of spice to the usual in-home glassware and do so quite beautifully.
