Valentine’s Day is not just for lovers anymore, according to my TikTok and Pinterest.
Part of the fun is making up a drink to fit the theme. I made up two options — a fruity spritz-inspired drink and a chocolaty drink, for variety. To make the spritzer more obviously festive, I chose blackberries and cranberry syrup to be the base of the drink. I poured sparkling wine over the top and added lime, too. This was complete guesswork — I had looked at the videos and Pinterest images and just estimated the ingredients and amount.
The second drink was chocolate-based, with a shot of vodka at the bottom and topped with whipped cream and sprinkles, like a candy bag of Valentine’s Day sweets but with alcohol. I tried to make a crushed Oreo rim to really top it off, but I ended up spraying Oreos all over the office kitchen and it had to be abandoned.The reviews were mixed.
Mos named the spritzer “Berry Delicious,” while Ken and Alexa dubbed the chocolate drink “The Steffi.” I’m not sure how I feel about my name being associated with a shot of vodka and essentially chocolate milk, but OK. I’m not totally convinced I staged my drinks well enough to pass as a Pinterest-worthy post, but it was just fun to mess around with my friends and create beverages together. Valentine’s Day doesn’t need to just be with your partner! It’s an opportunity to share love with anyone in your life, specifically by guessing a drink recipe and making them taste it.
