For some, romance lies in grand gestures, extravagant gifts and passionate declarations. For others, it is the everyday small things they do to make their loved one smile. For some, romance does not come naturally. These unromantic souls resort to corny cards and overpriced chocolates and their attempts feel forced and nothing about the process is smooth and seductive.

Whether you are a natural charmer or live in fear of Valentine’s Day, we have the answer. Blitz together four ingredients, pour it in a sexy glass and charm your special someone with a delicious drink that will have the lovers swoon and even add some smoothness to the efforts of those not so romantically-inclined.
