Hump Day Happy Hour: Cotton Candy Kiss

Though I am not one for sticky sweet drinks that are more like "cake-tails" rather than cocktails, I couldn't help but think that the Cotton Candy Kiss would make for a great after dinner drink on Valentine's Day.

The cocktail is from BOA Steakhouse, so if you happen to live in Los Angeles or are planning a trip to Vegas any time soon, you can try one at their bar for $12. Otherwise, get your hands on some tequila, Cointreau, lime and cranberry juices.

Combine 2 oz silver tequila, 1 oz Cointreau, ½ tsp fresh lime juice, and a splash of cranberry juice in a Boston shaker filled with ice. Shake vigorously and strain into a chilled martini glass. The recipe from BOA says to "garnish with cherry cotton candy, because the kid in you deserves something yummy," but I think I'd be okay without that.
