2. Everyone will love a Rustic Italian Martini Bar at your cocktail hour or reception! You and your guests get a chance to play bartender by mixing a drink to your own liking with Vodka, Vermouth, soda water, "dirty water" and various garnishes like olives, limes, lemons, cucumbers and even mint!  Keep the presentation clean and crisp with labels. Sunday Suppers even added a hand-stamped "how-to sign" for guests that aren't feeling as confident in their barista abilities.
