00:00Do you want to know the secret of how I got you to love me?
00:01I made you a love potion number 10.
00:03Ha ha!
00:04So we're adding in our London dry gin.
00:06And we're going to add in our?
00:08Triple sec or Cointreau.
00:09Any type of orange.
00:10Orange carousel.
00:11Yeah, orange flavored liqueur.
00:12This is our elderflower liqueur.
00:14Ooh.
00:15Then we're going to add our vanilla syrup
00:16that we made as well.
00:18And you can make vanilla syrup at home.
00:19It's really, really easy.
00:20So this is our fun little mystery ingredient.
00:22This is our blue pea tea flower.
00:25Butterfly blue pea tea flower, which.
00:27Butterfly blue pea tea.
00:28Butterfly blue pea tea.
00:29Say that five times fast.
00:30We're going to skip that part.
00:31So we're going to add in our ice.
00:32And we're going to give this a quick shake.
00:33Oh.
00:34It's a very good shake.
00:36Very good shake.
00:37So we're going to strain this into our Collins glass.
00:40We have these beautiful Collins ice cubes.
00:43They're four inch cubes.
00:44And look at that color.
00:45We're going to leave a little bit of space on the top.
00:47A little bit of space.
00:48Notice the recipe calls for this.
00:51We're going to leave a little bit of space on the top.
00:52A little bit of space.
00:53So we have this gorgeous little heart-shaped glass
00:56that has our lemon in here.
00:57This is our potion bottle.
00:58We're going to add this into our drink.
01:00So the acid is going to actually change color
01:02when it hits the blue pea tea.
01:04The acidity level, the pH level does
01:06this magical potion-like change.
01:08It would not be Valentine's Day without giving
01:10your partner and special person some flowers.
01:13So sweetheart, I'm going to give you some flowers.
01:15We have these edible pansies that I'm going
01:17to put on top of your glass.
01:18Oh my god, they're so pretty.
01:19Look at this drink.
01:20Of course I fell in love with you overnight.
01:21I mean, how could you not?
01:23Oh, honey, cheers.
01:24Cheers.
01:25Happy Valentine's Day.
01:26Happy February.
01:27Make this all February long.
01:29Do it.
01:32That's delicious.
