A sweet thing it is. The Sweetest Thing is a fantastic Valentine's Day cocktail that mixes bourbon with the raspberry-flavored liqueur, crème de frambois. It gets better, as that mix is then topped with Champagne and a few raspberries are dropped into the glass. The result is an elegant, beautiful cocktail to share with your Valentine.

Ingredients:

  • 1 oz Maker's Mark Bourbon
  • 1/2 oz DeKuyper Crème de Frambois
  • Champagne
  • raspberries for garnish

Preparation:

  1. Pour the bourbon and crème de framboise into a Champagne flute.
  2. Top with Champagne.
  3. Drop a few raspberries into the glass for a garnish.
