Who said Valentine’s Day is only for LOVERS ? Not this year check out this very Valentine festive drink for the adults. If your kids feel left out you can always just leave out the alcohol and have a matching drink that’s what I do for my daughter. It’s lots of fun and something special for you and them !

Ya’ll know by now I love easy and pretty treats this is defiantly one of those !!

Serve with a bowl of cherries on the side. When I make this for company and not just me I always serve it on a  white tray and it looks amazing ! So simple but looks so classy and makes people think you went above and beyond.

  13. Interesting idea to mix whiskey with sweet cherries like that--like an amped up Manhattan, almost. I remember my cousin making us Shirley Temples back when we were kids--we felt so grown up with our own fancy drinks :)
