LOVE
4 measures gin
1 measure lemon juice
1 egg white
1 tsp grenadine
Intertwined cherries for garnish
RECIPE IS FOR TWO
OK, it’s Valentine’s
Day and, though I never fall into the commercial hype that is Sweetest Day, I
can’t help but do a little something to celebrate Valentine’s Day with the
hubby every year. This year was really special — we went for pedicures. Yep,
Rob and I shared some wine as our feet were rubbed, scrapped, pampered and, in
my case, polished. I loved it (what woman doesn’t.) Rob, he liked it, but didn’t
love it. I’ll take an appreciative girlfriend next time, but I’m still glad we shared
a pedi and we had a lot of fun doing it. You gotta shake things up once in a
while.
We then came home
and enjoyed the cocktail of the day, aptly named LOVE. To make it, I combined
the ingredients above into a shaker, and, yes, it includes an egg white. I then
added ice to the shaker, shook it all up and strained it into the cutest glasses
I could find.
As the grand
finale, I took some maraschino cherries and tied the stems before plopping them
into the glasses. LOVE the cocktail is strong, sweet, unique and cool looking.
I loved LOVE’s pink color and, as I sipped, I became a little more in love with
cocktails containing grenadine and egg white. And I must say, this cocktail
tastes especially good with well manicured feet. Tonight, both the LOVE cocktail
and couples pedicures come highly recommended.
Drink Up^
