30 Romantic Valentine’s Day Drinks to Set the Mood
I’ve pulled together a great list of Valentine’s Day drinks, including cocktails and mocktails that are perfect for the occasion.
Valentine’s Day is such a fun holiday, and there are so many ways to celebrate. You can have a Galentine’s Day party, celebrate with family, plan a date night with a special someone, and more.
For the ladies without a significant other or special plan this year, make it a Galentine Day. Find yourself a tasty mocktail or cocktail, plan a delicious dinner with friends, and treat yourselfves to a rom-com!
These recipes are so easy to make and most of them are made one glass at a time, so you don’t need to worry about having extra if you’re a party of one this year.
Now, if cocktails are like bacon and the idea of “extra” has never seemed like a problem to you, well, you’ll just have to triple these recipes.

If you’re planning a Valentine’s Day hangout with your family, I’m confident you’ll find some good drink options in the mocktail category. I also have a great tutorial for folding paper napkins into hearts if you’re planning a fun tablescape.
You can also download and print my free Valentine’s Day coloring pages for a fun activity with your littles.
I’ve split my list of Valentine’s Day drinks into four categories: mocktails, mimosas, boozy floats, and inspired by classic cocktails. Hopefully, this helps you find the best Valentine’s Day cocktails for your celebration.
