If you can’t remember the last time you got together with a group of your best gal pals, then you are past due for a Girls Night In! You don’t need to send out a formal invitation. You know the best way to get ahold of your friends. Just pick a day and time and make it happen.
Celebrate your Girls Night In by serving a signature drink like this Floating Raspberry Mocktail. Mocktail non-alcoholic drinks are being called one of this year’s coolest food trends. This pretty mocktail made with Trop 50 Raspberry Acai makes sure you are right on trend!

Trop50 Raspberry Acai adds just a touch of pink color to this a-little-bit-fuzzy, a-little-bit-fruity drink. And for the finishing touch? Add a few raspberries on top – they will actually stay afloat! This little party trick will surely amaze your friends.
It’s nice to have a Girls Night In theme picked out in advance so everyone comes prepared to hang out and have fun. A few of my favorite Girls Night In ideas are:
Spa Night. Set out a variety of beauty masks and creams. The girls can treat themselves to facials and take pictures for future blackmail purposes.
Pinterest Party. And no, I don’t mean sit around surfing Pinterest together…although I have to admit, that could be fun, too. A Pinterest Party is where you pick a craft or recipe you saw on Pinterest and everybody gets together to make it.
Mani/Pedi. Ask the girls to bring their favorite polishes to share. Everyone can take turns doing each others’ nails.
Game Night. Party games, board games, video games…pick the ones you think will work best with your group’s personality.
Chick Flick. Tell everyone to come wearing comfy clothes (even pajamas) and enjoy watching a chick flick together.
The inspiration for this mocktail recipe came from Trop50 Raspberry Acai. I love raspberries and was excited to find a way to include them in a fun drink for me and my friends. I think you’re going to love it, too.

That sounds great. A few of my mama friends and I try to have a moms night in about once every couple of months. We need to remember to switch to mocktails halfway through the evening. I’ll suggest this one!

Birdiebee says
What a great drink. I am going to have to try this one out as I love raspberries. I can’t remember the last time I had a night with the girls but likely it is going to be quite awhile as all of my good friends live over 200 miles away. I am hoping next year we can all plan to get together for some type of special little mini vacay.

Right now it is boiling hot outside and this would be a great low calorie drink to make that looks refreshing. I love Raspberries and this drink looks so delicious. I will have to make it this week!
