Try these delectable
drinks for Valentines Day
date night
By Isadora Pennington
W hile there’s plenty of debate on whether
Valentine’s Day has any merit as holiday or if
it’s a longstanding marketing ploy to sell cards
and candy, it’s still a time of year when many
of us take the opportunity to go on a fancy date night and
profess our love to our significant others.
So this year as you make your plans, order your flowers
and try to find the perfect, poetic card that speaks to your
specific relationship, perhaps consider choosing a restaurant
that offers delectable cocktails that will please both you and
your partner. My husband and I, for example, have very
different tastes in cocktails. I prefer something fruity, tart and
light, while he usually sticks with smokier, richer, chocolate-y
flavors. When we choose a spot for a night out on the town,
it’s important to consider robust menus that will cater to both
of our tastes without sacrificing the quality of either.
For this month’s feature, I’ve profiled four of my
favorite local venues that offer a variety of tasty adult
beverages that are sure to please even the pickiest of
cocktail drinkers.
