Consider doubling the recipe as needed!

What do you need to make a Valentine’s Mocktail?

• Strawberry flavoured frozen drink
• Club soda
• Lemon
• Lime
• Grenadine (optional)
• Raspberries

How to make an easy Valentine’s Day Mocktail:

• Add club soda to a pitcher or punch bowl.
• Top with frozen strawberry drink.
• Add fresh lemon and lime juice.
• Throw in some fresh fruit like raspberries or strawberries.
• In a glass add a small amount of grenadine.
• Top with the punch mixture.
• Enjoy!

Easy Berry In Love Mocktail Recipe

Add club soda to a pitcher or punch bowl. Top with a frozen strawberry drink. This will give the drink a delicious slush texture with a fizz!

Add fresh lemon and lime juice to the pitcher or punch bowl.

Garnish! Using lemon and lime slices and fresh fruit. We suggest using raspberries or strawberries. Add them into the pitcher and then place extra near your pitcher for use on glasses if desired.

When preparing to pour, add some grenadine to the glass. This step is optional! Grenadine adds a sweet cherry flavour that compliments this delicious strawberry mocktail – but could make it too sweet for some, so use to taste.

Finally, fill the glass with the Berry In Love Mocktail. Enjoy!

We hope you love this Berry In Love Mocktail. Perfect for parties, girls night or date night! If you’re looking for more Valentine’s delights, check out our other Valentine’s Day ideas!

What ingredients do you need to make an easy Valentine’s Dessert?

• 36 Golden Oreo cookies
• 1 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese (softened to room temperature)
• Pink gel food colouring
• Dark chocolate melts
• Pearly pink sprinkles

How do you make Easy No-Bake Valentine’s Truffles

• You will need a food processor and a microwave to make this dessert.
• Simply put the golden Oreo cookies into a food processor and pulse them until they are crumbs (don’t remove the cream).
• Then, in a separate bowl, add the softened cream cheese and mix until smooth.
• Next, add pink gel food colouring to the dough. Blend until the colour is solid.
• Keep reading for the final touches!

This recipe is so easy to make, only requires a few ingredients and it’s no-bake!

Firstly place thirty six whole Oreo cookies into a food processor (the whole cookie). Pulse the cookies until they become fine crumbs.

Secondly, place the crumbs into a medium mixing bowl and add the softened cream cheese, mix with a hand mixer until well blended. Next, add in two-three drops of food colouring to the dough. Blend with a spatula.

On a piece of parchment paper chill the pink dough in the refrigerator for 5 min. This will make the next step easier.

Remove from the fridge and scoop the mixture into balls, a tablespoon works great for this! Roll the mixture into a ball shape and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Continue until all of the mixture is used.

Place the rolled balls into the freezer for 15min.

While the balls are chilling, melt the dark chocolate in the microwave. Melting times may vary, be sure to follow the melting instructions on the chocolate you have.

Once the Oreo balls have chilled, remove them from the freezer. Using a fork, dip each ball into the melted chocolate. Top with the sprinkles immediately as the chocolate will dry quickly!

Set them aside to set completely.

Viola! A FUN and EASY Valentine’s Truffles

Pink Amaretto and Cream Ingredients

• Amaretto – is an Italian liqueur with a delicious almond flavour.
• Half and half cream – will add a creamy, rich smoothness to the amaretto
• Pink Food Colouring – use a gel so it doesn’t dilute the drink and will give a very pretty Valentine’s vibe!
• Rim *optional* – clear, pink or red sugar crystals or heart shaped sprinkles

What is Amaretto Liqueur?

Amaretto is an Italian liqueur, with a delicious almond flavour. It pairs very well with cream, ice cream and soda. Some prefer their amaretto served neat or with ice. Amaretto is found in every well stocked bar so it’s easy to find. You may have heard of Disaronno Originale Amaretto, it’s one of the most popular amaretto brands, it’s readily available at most liquor stores and it’s what we used in our Pink Amaretto and Cream.

Serving Suggestions

This drink is usually served in an old fashioned glass or rocks glass but will also look cute in a coupe glass! Because we are making this a Pink Amaretto and Cream, a Valentine’s rim such as clear, pink or red sugar crystals, or even heart shaped sprinkles would definitely give it a special touch.

How to Rim a Cocktail Glass

1. This is super simple and looks so good! Firstly, fill a shallow dish or bowl with water, lime or lemon juice.
2. Secondly, carefully dip a small, clean sponge into the liquid and spread the juice onto the glass.
3. Dip the glass into another shallow dish or bowl filled with the rim of your choice

How to make a Pink Amaretto and Cream Cocktail:

• Add 1.5 oz of amaretto and 1.5 oz of heavy cream to crushed ice in a cocktail shaker
• Place one drop of food colouring into the shaker, be sure to use gel food colouring!
• Shake and serve!

Shake and serve!

We hope you love this delicious simple but satisfying Pink Amaretto and Cream. Mix this cocktail up and enjoy it with a special someone this Valentine’s Day!
