Valentine's Day Cocktails and Drinks

And what if you’re single? No worries, in Ecuador, we celebrate both love and friendship on this day. Regardless of if we have a significant other in our lives, we always made it a point to spend some time with our friends. Then those who a special date would have their celebration, while the single girls (or guys) celebrated friendship. So, go ahead and have a girls or guys night with your single friends. For the ladies, I recommend a cocktail, appetizers and dessert party with tasty drinks and lots of chocolate.  Or have a Valentine’s Day inspired brunch, for the both the couples and singles, with a similar theme, to celebrate both Love and Friendship.

Feliz día del Amor y la Amistad!
