This Norwegian Wood Cocktail is fruity and delicious! Post may contain affiliate links.
One of my favorite times of the year is when the stores are overflowing with berries. All the summer berries you could want. As the strawberries start to fade out, they are replaced with blueberries, blackberries and raspberries. I’m using them in everything from smoothies to salads and especially cocktails! Fruit and alcohol are a match made in heaven. Think of Homemade Orange Liqueur and Dark Cherry Liqueur. Whenever I see fruit, I invariably want to preserve it in some form of alcohol. But if you want your fruity alcohol goodness right now, then this Norwegian Wood Cocktail is perfect!
I found this cocktail in the charming Sweet Paul Eat and Make: Charming Recipes and Kitchen Crafts You Will Love

Your Norweigan Wood Cocktail looks amazing! Thanks for the invitation over to Tipsy Tuesday, Pam! Hope you are having a great week!
Love all the fresh berries this time of year! My wife was just looking for local pick your own berry places today, in fact. Our rosemary is looking very good – I don’t think I’ve used any in a cocktail yet. Sounds delisch!
This sounds great!! I love all the fruit in it and I’m a big fan of rosemary in cocktails. Next time I go berry crazy at the store, I’ll have to try this out. I’ve been on such a berry binge lately 🙂
What a beautiful drink! Tomorrow I’m taking my family berry picking, so I’ll have to have my mixologist (aka hubby) make me one of these tomorrow night!
YUMMO, this sounds great! It is the summer of mixed drinks at my house. My husband and I have had fun maing lots of drinks to try. Adding this to our list. We yummed this!
I love these cocktails!! I need to start making them more at home… Plus I love cocktails with fresh berries in it! Can’t wait to try this cocktail… 🙂

Norwegian wood is one of my favorite Beatles songs! I wonder why this cocktail is named after it. Anyway, it looks delicious. Pinned!
Wow, Pam. These photos are gorgeous! This cocktail looks so good!

I’m loving your drink creation in all sorts of ways. Thanks for sharing!
P.S. Are you an Orange is the New Black fan, btw? Cause if you are, do you think Piper was kinda annoying this season??
I am a huge Orange is the New Black fan, but I haven’t even started watching this season yet!
