Today is an incredible day. Not only because it's Friday (yay, Friday!) but because today is the day you're going to discover the only cocktail recipe you'll ever need for the rest of your life. Yes - this Sweet Grapefruit Kiss Cocktail really is that good. And it's only made from three ingredients!

Writing a blog post about an alcoholic drink whilst being a teeny bit hungover might not be my task of choice, but this cocktail is just that good that I couldn't hold off on sharing it with you any longer. If you're looking for romantic cocktail recipes to serve up for your special someone (or to sip on your own) this Valentine's Day then stop searching, because you've found the best right here.

The reason I'm a little bit worse for wear this morning is because I worked my way through ¾ of a bottle of wine last night. A couple of years ago that wouldn't have affected me at all, but the older I get, the more I feel the after effects of alcohol. Anyone else get this? Anyway, when I get fed up with daily life or get overwhelmed with everything going on, I find that a total blowout (yes, ¾ of a bottle of rosé counts as a blowout to me) results in me waking up in the morning mentally refreshed and with a much brighter outlook on life. Even if I do have a bit of a headache now.

So if you're looking for way to uplift your mood and don't fancy opening a bottle of wine, make this grapefruit cocktail recipe instead! Three ingredients and five minutes is all you need to create the most incredible cocktail in the world which is the perfect balance of sweet and tart, fruit juice and flavourful alcohol, and the most gorgeous shade of pink-peach-orange which is so pretty you'll want to match your outfit to it.
