One way that many restaurants and bars around the country are honoring the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer community this June is by creating Pride-inspired cocktails. Those who stop in these spots can try the colorful drinks, often also donating money to related causes in the process.
But an added perk of these bright and beautiful cocktails around the nation is that they just may give many of us inspiration to create fun Pride-inspired cocktails at home. Enjoy these celebratory sips all June and beyond.
What Is A Pride-Inspired Cocktail?
You’ll notice a lot of the Pride-inspired cocktails on this list are bright and full of color—much like a rainbow, which is a symbol of Pride as well. They are also often very festive and fun, perhaps with floral or glitter adornment that evokes a Pride parade.
These Pride-inspired cocktails will run the gamut, as there are many colors in a rainbow and ingredients in a cocktail, but for the most part, you’ll find sweet mixes with bright colors and seasonal fruits and flavors, plus some edible glitter for good measure.
Pride-Inspired Cocktails To Make At Home
Many of these Pride-inspired cocktails go well with a fun and festive gathering or party, which is a big part of appreciating and celebrating Pride month.
