We should always celebrate love. In any form. Isn't it worth celebrating? I'll certainly cheers to love!

And on that slightly cheesy, but totally genuine note, I present to you this Valentine's Day cocktail recipe for Love Potion #9! With cherry liqueur (mmmm!), sweet and sour mix (oooh!) and vodka (yay!), this recipe combines tart and sweet and it comes with a little kick to it as well, kind of like love itself.

What You'll Need:

1/2 oz Cherry Liqueur

1/2 oz Skyy Vodka

1/2 oz Sweet and Sour Mix

DIY Sweet and Sour Mix: Combine equal parts simple syrup and lemon and/or lime juice. Click here for a simple syrup recipe.

The How To: Mix all ingredients and garnish with a maraschino cherry!
