Oh la la! It is Valentine’s Day! Are you making a special meal for your sweetheart this evening?  Here is a ménage à trois of drink ideas to enhance the party!
Wine and Chocolate
Box of chocolates
Decorative icing in variety of colors
Skewers
Something to decorate the skewer with
1.       It’s best to put the box of candy in the refrigerator before piercing with the skewer.
2.       2. Decorate the candy after you skewered it.
3.       Lay across your wine glass and give it to your sweetheart.
Champagne and Strawberries
Cut out heart shapes from your strawberries and freeze them. Add them to your sparkling cider or champagne before serving.
Strawberry Roses
Candy Melts in pink: follow directions for melting
Sparkle gel in red
Skewers
Strawberries
Something to hold them so they can set, I used a Styrofoam block
1.       Clean and dry strawberries. It is important to make sure they are not wet otherwise the candy will not stick or it will look clumpy.
2.       Insert a skewer into the strawberry so the leaves are at the bottom and dip the berry into the melted candy.
3.       Let set then decorate with red sparkle gel.
I am making these drinks to impress a sweetheart on Sonoran Living.
