Valentine’s Day is 10 days away, and are you still wondering how to surprise your beloved? It is the perfect time to celebrate your love and bonding with your partner, and what better way to do so than by cooking a delicious meal together? Afterall, as there is a famous saying, Dil ka rasta pet se hokar guzarta hai (The way to one’s heart is through the tummy).
Whether you prefer a cosy breakfast in bed, a fancy dinner at home, or a sweet treat to end the night, there are plenty of Valentine’s Day special food recipes to choose from. Thanks to Instagram reels, My Kolkata found some ‘aww’ worthy recipes one should totally try this V-Day.
Don't break hearts, break heart cookies
It’s time to shower hearts everywhere and these cookies with a heart embed by @crowded_kitchen are just so adorable! While you can make them yourself and surprise your loved one, it will be more fun to bake them together. These cookies look like a work of art. These butter cookies are easy to make and need some little skill to set the heart in the middle. If you have kids at home, they would enjoy baking these too!
A Rose Day Rosé!
Rose Day falls on February 7 this year. You can celebrate it with some creative cocktails like this Bubbly Rose Rosé by @doublethespoonsfuls. If you like sparkling wine, you will enjoy this cocktail with your Valentine and even your Galentine! Inspired by an orange Mimosa, all you have to do is slice the strawberries and arrange them in the shape of roses in an ice-tray. Pour some sparkling wine and freeze. These look cute when added to the glass. And make sure you pick a nice wine!
Lover's Day cotton candy cocktail
Cotton candy has a separate fanbase! Bringing cotton candy on a date instead of flowers should now be accepted! It is sweet, adorable and cute – like the beginning of a love story. @cocktailswithwhiskey takes this cotton candy and stirs it in a whisky cocktail. A perfect boozy, pink cotton candy-flavoured drink to enjoy this V-Day.
Gallentine Popcorn
While Valentines' is sometimes about getting cheesy, Galentines is certainly about cuteness. If you are spending this day of love with your girl gang, this pink, white chocolate-coated popcorn is going to be the star. @thesavorycoconut shows us how to make an adorable-looking popcorn in a reel that is perfect for a Galentine movie date night.
