Easy Cocktails for Valentine’s Day
Here are some SUPER easy yet super cute cocktails that add a little red, pink, or purple into your life! First up we have the classic “Lady in Red:”
2 parts preferred whiskey (we used Bulliet)
1 part grenadine
Stir over lots of ice
Pour into a fun glass!
Optional garnish - strawberry or cherry
Next up we have the “Purple Pineapple Dream” which is probably the best looking because we put it in a fun glass and it’s got a fun froth top!
2 parts preferred white rum (we used Cutwater rum)
2 parts pineapple juice
1 part pure blackberry juice (we found on Amazon)
Shake well!
Optional garnish - blackberries or pineapple
Lastly, we made the “Dirty Shirley Press” which is such a timeless classic well drink! When it doubt, this was my go-to order at our local college bar. It also used to be like $3, dang I am old.
2 parts preferred vodka (we used Kettle One)
2 parts sprite
1 part soda water (you can switch these two if you want it less sweet)
1/2 part grenadine
Any glass works (no fancy ones needed)
Optional garnish - lemon slice or cherries
We aren’t fancy cocktail drinkers but I thought this would be fun for the folks looking for inspiration for some! We love making up drinks based on ingredients we have at the house, or just what might sound good! We have made many random concoctions that are not great, we have also made some BOMB ones! Enjoy! And let us know if you end up trying any of them :)
