We've mixed up the recipes for this entry so you don't get bored with one type of drink. This week try one of these mixes and you're sure to be pleased.
FUN FACT: The Belini originated in Italy and is one of many internationally known long drink cocktails. Most often served when celebrating, this sparkling wine based beverage is bubbly for all occasions you can think up. Because of its distinctive pink color, the creator was reminded of the 15th-Century Venetian artist Giovanni Bellini, whose painting of a saint in a pink toga became the sole reason the drink is now named the Bellini.
