Fancy Drinks #2


Valentine's Lemonade

Mocktail:
2 parts raspberry lemonade (or regular pink lemonade)
1 part cranberry juice
add a little grenadine for sweetening
and a strawberry on top for garnish  
option: add a sugar rim to make it even fancier!

Cocktail:
2 parts raspberry lemonade (or regular pink lemonade)
1 part cranberry juice
1 part champagne (or white wine if you prefer)
add a little grenadine
and a strawberry on top
plus a sugar rim

I love how festive a deep pink drink with a little sparkling sugar can be this time of year!  This sweet, fruity cocktail is perfect for any Valentine's occasion!  I must say, that while the color pink and anything heart-shaped isn't really my thing, the grocery store sugar cookies at Valentine's day are my weakness!  I've probably been through three boxes, single-handedly, since they first arrived on display in January!  Happy Valentine's Day everyone and I hope these Valentine's Lemonades can make your holiday a little sweeter, sweetheart or not!
Behind the Scenes:   A little love note from Einstein!
