Roses aren’t a girls best friend– and maybe you aren’t ready to give her a diamond or roses- particularly since they are so darn expensive on Valentine’s Day. Or maybe you are a chic chick who would love to surprise him with a special drink that just the two of you can share– and still have enough dinero for an affordable gift or make dinner.

Check it out and let me know what you think about this drink. It’s unusual, a bit different in flavor courtesy of the bitters, lemon juice and lychee juice. Definitely worth trying.
