I'm pretty sure this is the first Valentine's Day in 28 years that I will not be spending it with Jason. He's back enjoying the Florida sunshine while I'm stuck in frigid Indiana. We never celebrated the holiday anyway, but this year I'm looking forward to a peaceful evening at home with my snacks, tea, Netflix, a cozy blanket, and a kitty curled up on my lap. Allison was trying to get me to go out with her and her girlfriends for Galentine's Day, but at my age the thought of leaving the house for drinks makes my anxiety spike. Add in the fact that I'd be stuck with a bunch of college-aged girls, well, that's just horrifying LOL. However, I did picture myself enjoying a rom-com marathon while nursing a glass or two of my favorite blueberry wine before breaking out the snacks and tea kettle. But then I saw this Melted Amethyst Cocktail recipe on Golden Blossom Honey last week and think that I may have to swap out the wine for this fun little cocktail instead. 

 

Maybe I'm just getting cheap in my older years, but the price of mixed drinks and cocktails while dining out is getting ridiculous. I've found that most of the time I'm paying more for one alcoholic beverage than I am spending on my entire meal. While we're all still reeling from inflated prices across the board, I've found that I'm more inclined to hunt down quality recipes that cost a fraction of restaurant prices when made at home. And this recipe is no exception. With minimal ingredients, it's inexpensive to mix up at home, but it tastes just as good as what you'd get handed to you from the bartender. It's fruity, it's smooth, and it has just the right amount of bite to put a little heat in your belly. While it's one that I would normally pull up in the summer months, I think it's a perfect drink to whip up for a special Valentine's Day or Galentine's Day celebration, too. With its pretty purple coloring, it's just too gorgeous not to serve on the day of love.
