For an extra festive touch, rim the martini glass with pink or gold sugar by brushing the rim with lemon juice and dipping it into sanding sugar.
Use a heart-shaped stencil and a sprinkle of edible glitter over the drink’s surface for a whimsical effect.
Pair with Valentine’s Day treats like chocolate-dipped strawberries or mini raspberry tarts for the perfect themed gathering.
