Like a dozen long stemmed roses, this Valentine’s day cocktail will certainly put your honey in the mood. When making this cocktail, keep in mind that a little rose water goes a long way. The beautiful garnet color, the orange liquor and the sweet smell of rose in this drink will make your sweetheart forget all about the last minute crappy gift you got him or her. A little white teddy bear clutching a heart with the words “I Love You” is so wrong, it won’t even get Brad Pitt laid! Make your sweetheart this cocktail and the odds are in your favor.
In a cocktail shaker filled with ice add:
4 oz. Vodka
1/2 oz. Pomegranate or Cranberry juice (just enough to give it a blush)
A splash (1 teaspoon) of Orange Liquor
A single drop of Rose water (or crush an organic rose into the shaker)
Put ingredients into cocktail shaker, shake vigorously and strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with a rose petal floating on top.
