The Valentine's Day holiday calls for romance and luxurious treats, chocolate and treating oneself. Also synonymous with Valentine's Day (for adults): alcoholic beverages.
Try a Valentine's Day-themed cocktail at city restaurants and bars.The New Dirty at the Arlington Club 1032 Lexington Ave., 212-249-5700. Mixologist Keith Nelson designed this sexy cocktail, made with Belvedere vodka, Lillet, Dolin, a pinch of salt and a flamed orange peel.
The Whiskey-Gram at Fatty Crab 634 Hudson St., 212-352-3598. Eat at the Crab on Valentine's Day (because who wouldn't want to eat watermelon pickle and crispy pork with their lover?) and you'll get a complimentary mini bottle of whiskey and pickle juice. Pickle backs!
Love Potion 79 at the Mermaid Oyster Bar 79 MacDougal St., 212-260-0100. You can enjoy oysters at the Mermaid any day, but only on Valentine's Day do the mixologists concoct this special drink. Made with Bulldog Gin, crème de violette liqueur, lemon juice and Pernod, this potion is likely to make you feel even more in love.
