Something I have found myself enjoying more and more lately is making cocktails. Not that I am an expert or any good at it. Most of the time, the cocktail making ends up being a massive mess. I also have to say that I don’t necessarily have the proper equipment or technic. I wing it most of the time, like those Valentine’s Day cocktails for example.
Simply because it is fun!
I have one liquor and one alcohol of choice: gin and Prosecco. Thus, it would come to no surprise to anyone that I have used either or for the three pink cocktails for Valentine’s Day listed below. Not only are they super easy to make, they are perfect for a chill weekend and are also delicious! In additional, they are not even that strong, so you can indulge without worrying!
The pink cocktails below also do not require a lot of equipment and the garnish suggested are pretty easy to find, I have to say! Let’s me know what you think of those three pink cocktails that are perfect for Valentine’s Day!
