Throughout October Little Black Dress Wines is raising breast cancer awareness. Show your Pink Drink creations using #LBDPinkDrink on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. I received free samples of wine to try, no other financial compensation was received in exchange for sharing this post.
Little Black Dress Wines has partnered with the Keep a Breast Foundation to raise breast cancer awareness this October. Throughout this month Little Black Dress is featuring three pink cocktails. Bottles of Little Black Dress Wines will also include a self-check necker, a waterproof how-to necker to use as a reminder to conduct monthly self checks. The special cocktails for October feature three of Little Black Dress Wines including: Pinot Grigio, Divalicious Pink Pinot, and Pinot Noir.

I wanted to create my own recipe for this post. I have been so busy this month that this post kept getting pushed back. I know October is almost over, however we should continue promoting breast cancer awareness beyond October. I created a wine spritzer. I prefer fizzy drinks and fruity cocktaisl generally over wine. I know you will love it!

It's very close to a punch. It would be a perfect adult punch.
