It's tempting to opt for heavy, indulgent food and drinks for Valentine's Day, like chocolates and cream-based soups and sauces. Keeping flavors light is a much better idea because, unless your idea of a romantic evening is being lulled to sleep by a full stomach, brighter flavors, like citrus, are a fun and palate cleansing choice. The Sweetheart Shot uses citrus in the form of Cuervo Citrico, the new citrus flavored tequila from Jose Cuervo. It primarily has a lime flavor, but unlike simply squeezing a lime into a regular shot, there is a sweet undercurrent that cuts the acidity. This drink is not the sort of romantic one you sip by the fire; shots usually go down quickly. Think of it as a light, quick kiss - but still with some heat to it.

Margarita Minis from Jose Cuervo
Margaritas taste great, but can be a hassle to make. You really either need a blender or a cocktail shaker
to mix one up and it's not in their nature to be portable, since you also need bottles of both tequila and
margarita mix, if not triple sec and a lime to go with them. Jose Cuervo now makes having a margarita as easy as having
a beer with their Margarita minis. The 9.95%
alcohol by volume drinks come in 50 mL square, glass bottles packed in groups of four. They are lime flavored, made
with Cuervo Gold tequila and pack a punch from both. To serve, pour the bottle out into an ice-filled glass or
simply chill the individual bottles. They're up to Cuervo's usual standards - meaning that they taste great. Don't
forget to share!
