My beautiful daughter Kristin was born on the first day of summer. That year happened to be on Father's Day; Kristin was the perfect Father’s Day gift. To celebrate the day, Nick brought me a dozen of the most exquisite roses, each petal perfect with a most beautiful light pink. I created this cocktail, Summer Rose as a tribute to that special day.
I lovingly dedicate this blog and the Summer Rose cocktail to Kristin and Nick.
