Valentine’s is almost here…

Valentine’s is almost here…
and sometimes the sweetest moments are the ones we create at home.

This week on Thirsty Thursday, I’m shaking up a raspberry espresso martini — rich, slightly sweet, and perfect for a slow February evening.

Niagara is still wrapped in winter…
but small rituals help soften the season.

A favorite glass.
Fresh espresso.
A touch of raspberry.
Maybe shared with someone you love… or simply enjoyed in a quiet moment for yourself.

Because home isn’t just where we live — it’s where we create experiences.

Recipe (approximate):
• 1–1.5 oz vodka with a dash of vanilla
• 1 oz Baileys or cream liqueur
• ¾ oz raspberry simple syrup or puree
• Fresh espresso
Shake with ice. Garnish with raspberries, chocolate, and coffee beans.

Try it this weekend… it’s a good one.

Cheers ♥️
