3 and 30 Cocktails for Valentine's Day

In honor of next week's Valentine's Day, I have three new drinks to share which bring the ongoing collection of lover's libations to 30 (and counting).

French Sparkle - If you have yet to check out Chambord Flavored Vodka, this drink (and the occasion) is an ideal excuse to do so. In this drink the black raspberry liqueur-inspired vodka is combined with mango nectar and champagne. Simple, classy, delicious.

Sweet Dreams - Featuring another new spirit, this drink is part chocolate and part coffee with a touch of tequila, vodka, and caramel. The first three flavors are found in one of the drink's ingredients and the latest release from Patron Spirits, namely Patron XO Cafe Dark Cocoa - aka a mouthful of scrumptiousness.

Saint Valentine - Not necessarily a new drink, but new to the list. This David Wondrich creation should be a classic and will make an elegant addition to date night (or whenever). It's a mix of white rum, ruby port, orange liqueur, and lime juice.
