All You Need for a Barbie Summer of Pink Drinking
We assume you’ve heard - Barbie is taking the summer by storm. She’s more than the world’s most famous doll, she’s a cultural icon that has been inspiring girls for generations. This summer things get real with the fantastical theatrical release of “Barbie” (starring Margot Robbie as Barbie and Ryan Gosling as Ken; directed by the genius Greta Gerwig). This summer has also been designated the summer of pink drinking and we are here for it.
Delightful Pink Drinks for a Dreamy Barbie Party
Barbie is of course known for her love of fashion, beauty, and fun. She’s also inspiring a summer of what we call “pink drinking” - filling up your glass with flirty, festive and feminine icon pink drinks to toast to whatever the heck you want! Add all the glitter, rhinestones and heart-shaped ice cubes and voila ~ you have a drink fit for Barbie Land.
You don’t have to live in Barbie Land to lift a glass to your own Barbie summer with a pink drink. And you can do it all without the alcohol too (Zero Proof Barbie, are you out there?) Get all your Barbie inspired beverages for a “Barbie” viewing party, or a Barbie inspired pool party or birthday party, or just when you want something sweet, fruity, refreshing, and fun. Here are some of our favorites.
