This Valentine’s Day is especially exciting for me. I’m getting married one week after Valentine’s Day. We’re busy attending to last minute details, and this is the first year in a LONG, LONG time that I am not celebrating the day of Valentine’s. On top of that, my son is with us, and it is kind of hard to be romantic with a 7-year-old running around. We have decided to celebrate the next day when we are alone. Besides, who likes a crowded, over-priced restaurant? Definitely not me.
We are planning a quiet dinner at home. I can’t tell you what I’m making because that would ruin the surprise for my fiancé. All he knows is that I am making him something wonderful and tasty and delicious. What I can tell you is what we are drinking. This Berry Mint Gin cocktail is tops! I love the flavor of mint in my cocktails. It adds a freshness to drinks that I really like. Also, I am not a fan of overly sweet drinks. Girlie drinks are not for me, but this Berry Mint Gin is still sweet enough for anyone to enjoy.
