Chocolate Martini

Because Valentine’s Day isn’t complete without a little, or A LOT, of chocolate.

You’ll need:

• 2 oz Spring44 Vodka

• 1 oz chocolate liqueur

• 1 oz cream or dairy-free alternative

How to make it: Shake all ingredients with ice until chilled. Strain into a martini glass. Garnish with chocolate shavings, cocoa powder, or a chocolate-dipped strawberry if you're feeling fancy!

Strawberry Gin Smash

Fresh, fruity, and easy to love.

You’ll need:

• 2 oz Spring44 Gin

• 3 - 4 fresh strawberries

• 1/2 oz simple syrup

• 3/4 oz fresh lemon juice

• Club soda

How to make it: Muddle strawberries with simple syrup and lemon juice. Add gin and ice, shake briefly, then strain into a glass over fresh ice. Top with club soda and garnish with a strawberry or mint.

Lavender Lemon Drop

Bright, floral, and just sweet enough. This is a Valentine’s twist on a fan favorite.

You’ll need:

• 2 oz Spring44 Honey Vodka

• 1 oz fresh lemon juice

• 1/2 oz lavender simple syrup

• Sugar for rim (optional)

How to make it: Rim a martini glass with sugar if desired. Shake vodka, lemon juice, and lavender syrup with ice. Strain into the glass and garnish with a lemon wheel or a sprig of lavender. If you're feeling fancy you can make a lavender sugar for the rim by combining lavender flowers and sugar in a spice grinder and blend until combined. Enjoy!

Cheers to love, great cocktails, and Spring44. ♥️
