Happy St. Valentine's Day Cocktail

           Where we get Valentines day is an interesting story, there are many stories that began  with the execution of St. Valentine on February 14, 278 A.D.  St. Valentine was a Roman priest martyred during the reign of Claudius Gothicus. He was arrested      and imprisoned upon being caught marrying Christian couples and otherwise aiding Christians who          were at the time being persecuted by Claudius in Rome.

     No matter were the holiday came from, today is the day that we offer up something to the love of our life.  St. Valentines Day is today and if you haven't got your special cocktail for your special evening yet, here is one you might want to try..  In my mind, women seem to like two things chocolate and fresh fruit cocktails.
