With Valentine’s Day on Friday I was thinking of a fun martini that I could whip up. The Conversation Heart Martini was born. I don’t think anything says Valentine’s Day quite like those fun little hearts. I have loved them since I was a child. Now with two children of my own, they are always a V Day staple in our house.
I feel like most people gravitate to chocolate for Valentine’s. Now don’t get me wrong. I love chocolate. I am a serious chocoholic. But this time I wanted to try something different. I’m also a fan of bright colors. This cocktail is a nice bright pretty pink.
This drink is super simple. It can be modified to your personal taste. Drop some conversation hearts into your martini glass. Pour vodka, whipped vodka, and pink lemonade into a shaker full of ice. Shake, shake, shake! Fill your glass and enjoy!
Conversation Hearts Martini RecipeĀ
Ingredients:
1 oz Vodka
1 oz Pinnacle Whipped Vodka
2 oz Pink Lemonade
Conversation Hearts
Pour all ingredients into a shaker filled with ice. Shake until chilled. Drop Conversation Hearts into the martini glass. Pour liquor mixture into glass. Serve immediately.
What are some Valentine’s Day staples in your house? Tell me in the comments.

You should try it and let me know what you think!
Hey Jen :) I love this idea and am a HUGE fan of simple, simple, simple! Excited to be following you and looking forward to seeing more posts!! :)
What a fun and cute idea. Love your about me section too. nice blog! Coming over from the SITS challenge
Thanks so much! I’m having so much fun exploring all these blogs. Happy Wednesday!
This looks amazing!! I can’t wait to make this.
It tastes amazing too. If you make it, please let me know what you think!
Valentine martini, I’m in. This is adorable. We’ll be traveling on Valentines with a later dinner BUT I will make this the 15th and I think candy hearts might be on sale even… So excited to try this!
Yes! You can probably find them for next to nothing. I’ll think of you while drinking mine on V day ;)
Birthday cake is a Valentine’s staple at our house–my son’s birthday is the 15th! Happy Wednesday! #SITS
How awesome! Happy Birthday to to your son :)
oh yum, that sounds like a good drink!
I have never had a martini before. This looks like the perfect starter drink. I LOVE conversational hearts. They remind me of my childhood. Valentines staples in our house are Heart Shaped meals (pancakes, pizza, treats, etc.)

I am going to try to incorporate heart shaped treats this year. It’s so much fun with the kids!
Oh heck YES! I love this! We are going out to dinner Friday, but Saturday are planning to stay in for a date night and I have to make this!
Great idea. I only recently discovered I love dirty martinis…so this seems the opposite end of the spectrum. But I do love sweets. I will have to give it a try. :) Stopping by from SITS. Have a great evening.
I’ve never thought to put candy in a cocktail, or any drink, but I love sweets, so why not. And I love vodka and pink lemonade so sounds like a great drink.
This looks so yummy and I don’t even drink! What a creative Valentine’s Day cocktail!

I am going to need this tomorrow to get through Snowmaggedon Part 2. It is a really cute drink, and very creative too!

How fun is that?! I love it, anyway to celebrate simply!! :)
You had me at Martini! This looks FAB and such a cute idea! Great pics too! #SITSblogging
This looks great, Jen! I used to love those little conversation hearts so much, lol.
What a fun idea! This is one of the few Valentine ideas I haven’t yet seen on every linky party and Pinterest board. Love the creativity but must admit I know next to nothing about vodka. What is whipped vodka?
Whipped is the flavor. It’s whipped cream flavored vodka. Very sweet stuff :)
Looks so yummy, and I have some conversation hearts sitting right here…

Well there you go!
Looks good! I wouldn’t mind trying one. #SITSblogging
These look so awesome! I may have to try them!
This is a cute idea! We don’t make a ton of cocktails at home, but this one looks totally doable!
What a cute idea! I haven’t had those conversation hearts in so long! Dropping by from SITS!
I have never tried Whipped Vodka, but you can bet I am going to now!! YUMMO!
Pinnacle is great! They have so many fun flavors. Even swedish fish!
This is just too cute! What a great idea! Perfect for Valentine’s Day.
This drink looks amazing! And it’s simple to make. I like it! :)
