Pink Squirrel
This Valentine's Day treat is the perfect pink squirrel cocktail. It's sweet and creamy, and it even has a hint of chocolate! Creme de Noyaux can easily be found on Amazon. You can also substitute it for Grenadine or Disarrono Velvet.
The Pink Squirrel was first invented in the 1940s by a Milwaukee cocktail lounge. Although the original recipe included ice cream in the cocktail, it has changed over time. It could have started as a milkshake with spirits. It became a huge hit in the Midwest, and remained a favorite cocktail for many decades. However, after the 1970s, it lost its creamy appeal.
Two types of fruit liqueur can be used to create the pink color in this variation. A variety of fruit preserves can also be added to the drink to enhance its flavor and color.
Raspberry Martini
A raspberry martini is a sweet, berry-flavored Valentine's Day drink. Because homemade raspberry syrup is used in this drink, it has a vibrant red color and an excellent balance between sweet and sour tastes. It's ideal for Valentine's Day celebrations or dates with your loved ones. Although it is slightly sweetened, the fresh lemon flavor cuts through the sweetness.
To make this raspberry martini, combine vodka with pomegranate juice and raspberry liqueur. Use a small amount of dry ice and a skewered strawberry ring to garnish your drink.
Sicilian Kiss
A shot glass of Sicilian Kiss, an amaretto-based cocktail, is used to serve the Sicilian Kiss. The drink blends Southern Comfort with amaretto and adds a touch of almond and apricot flavours. The name of the drink refers to Riina Andreotti's double-cheek kiss. Southern Comfort is a bittersweet, sweet liqueur.
It's a simple cocktail. But the bittersweet sweetness from Amaretto di Saronno, which is a Sicilian liquor, balances it. It's a sweet, sophisticated Valentine's Day shot or cocktail that celebrates the love you have.
Forbidden Kiss is another great Valentine's Day drink. Made with fine Italian Prosecco, it's the perfect drink for a special occasion. The cocktail is easy to prepare, and can be a fun activity for kids.

How To
How to make a martini that is good
A martini can be made from gin or vodka, vermouth, and water. Before you serve, mix all the ingredients well. It is best served chilled in a glass. A good martini should always be served straight up. If you mix it, then you ruin the taste.
Two olives are the most common way to serve martinis. You can also put some olive brine on the rim of the glass if you want to give your drink extra flavor.
Any type of alcohol can be used, however it is best to use 100% grain alcohol such as Vodka and Gin. This gives the cocktail more texture. There are many varieties of vermouths, but we recommend using one without added sugar. Too much sugar makes cocktails too sweet.
Make a martini by adding 2 ounces of dry Vermouth to a shaker. Add 1 ounce of vodka. Shake vigorously until well combined. Put the mixture in a chilled martini cup and garnish it with an olive.
Make a martini recipe using a shaker. Remember not to shake the mixture too much - only enough to combine all the ingredients.
