We all know that 2015 is totes going to be another year of female’s kicking stereotypes to the curb (thanks Queen Bey!) so why waste a perfectly good Saturday night sitting at home alone mourning your solo situation when you could invite all your other fearsome female friends over for some seriously kick-ass single girl cocktails? Here’s your inspiration…
Screaming Orgasm
Because every girl, single or not, deserves to have one of these tonight. Fill a cocktail glass with crushed ice and pour in 1 ounce of vodka, 1.5 ounces of Bailey’s, and .5 ounce of Kahlua. Stir and enjoy.
Moscow Unicorn
Yeah that’s right, we said UNICORN. This variation of the popular Moscow Mule (which sounds tres un-cute btw) is made up by combining 1 ounce of vodka, 1.5 ounces of cranberry juice and .5 tsp of sugar over ice. Stir and then top with 6 ounces of ginger beer. Garnish with cranberries and go.
The Island Breeze
Let’s be serious, we all know that man or no man, we still live in Canada…and it’s winter. Spend the day dreaming of sunny shores instead of stupid men with 4 ounces of pineapple juice, 1.5 ounces of rum, 1 ounce of cranberry juice, and 2 dashes of Angostura Bitters. Combine in a shaker with ice, shake and pour into a girly glass and garnish with lime and an umbrella.
Tom Collins
Hey, even if you want nothing to do with a man on V-Day, doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy one right? In a Collins glass, combine 2 ounces of dry gin, 1 teaspoon of sugar, ½ ounce of lemon juice and stir to combine. Fill the remainder of the glass with club soda and garnish with a slice of lemon.
Sweetheart Spritzer
Because even if you don’t have a sweetheart of your own tonight, all the other fabulous women around you know what a true sweetheart you are and that should be celebrated! Drop 2-3 fresh raspberries into a champagne flute, fill half way with raspberry lemonade and the other half with champagne. Sip and enjoy!
Whiskey
Grab whiskey, find glass, pour. Done. Because, hey, maybe you ain’t so sweet and it’s your night and if you wanna drink straight whiskey just like the bad-ass chick that you are, then you do it girl.
