It's almost time for Valentine's Day, and although we tend to play it low-key and stay in, for loads of people, this is the night to go out and do something fun and romantic. Or, have a friends' day and hang out with your buds! Or, if you think that the whole thing is an overblown waste of time...well, I've included some places with strong cocktails to help you forget the whole thing!
Sweethearts looking for sharable cocktails this Valentine’s Day need not look any farther than Miss B’s Coconut Club located in Mission Beach. The Havana Good Time, served in a Swan cocktail glass designed for two, has hearts beating. Lovers (or friends) can treat themselves to this refreshing grapefruit and cucumber cordial cocktail. As you may know, Swans typically mate for life – therefore, this is the perfect cocktail to share with your perfect mate.
