Give your Valentine’s Day cocktails a glow-up by getting creative with the garnishes. We’ve put together some easy ways to add that little bit extra to your drinks without too much effort.
Chocolate-dipped strawberries
Nothing says romance like chocolate-covered strawberries. Use them as a garnish by slicing them in half and placing them on the rim of your glass. They add a sweet touch and pair perfectly with the rich flavors of Kahlúa.
Edible rose petals
Sprinkle a few edible rose petals on top of your cocktail for a beautiful and aromatic garnish. They add a touch of elegance and sophistication, making your drink feel extra special.
Heart-shaped cocoa dusting
Dust the top of your drink with cocoa powder or grated chocolate using a stencil to create heart shapes. It’s an easy and indulgent garnish, and makes you look like a pro.
Pink sugar rim
Rim your glass with red or pink sugar to add a festive and colorful touch. Simply moisten the rim with a bit of citrus juice and dip it into colored sugar on a plate for a sweet, eye-catching effect.
Fresh red berries
Top your cocktail with a skewer of fresh raspberries or cherries. They add a pop of color and a burst of fruity flavor that pairs well with the richness of Kahlúa.
Additional pro tip
Give your milk-based cocktails a beautiful pink tint by stirring in a small splash of grenadine into the milk before adding it to the drink. You can also use the juice from maraschino cherries, if you have them lying around.
