Pregame Cocktail Recipes for a Girls Night Out

Before you hit the town and head to whatever fun you've planned for the evening, invite your favorite ladies to all meet at your place for some pregame cocktails.

Not only is this an easier, more conveinent way for everyone to gather in one place and move on to the next in a group, it's also offers a perfect opportunity to get the excitement for your Girls Night Out to an all time high.

Friends will arrive and appreciate the opportunity to get in party mode after after a long week. One essential way to succeed? A lovely, girls night cocktail of course!

We've rounded up some of our most favorite sips ladies love. Offer your friends one, some or all of these cocktails before getting your Girls Night Out in full swing!

If you're not a fan of our choices be sure to consider the following when selecting what drink you do want to serve:

1. Keep it light -- Serve cocktails that aren't extremely alcohol laced or overly heavy/creamy. Avoid drinks like martinis, pina coladas or mixed based cocktails (think sangria). This will prevent anyone from getting ahead of themselves and messing up your good time.

2. Keep it easy -- You're pregaming, which means there's no bartender to take your order. The idea is for everyone to relax and get ready for a fun time, so the less fuss, the better. Keep drinks simple to make and enjoy.
