In the language of flowers, red roses represent romantic love. This Valentine's Day cocktail takes advantage of that symbolism with, not one, but two rose ingredients. It's citrus-forward and slightly bitter with a floral perfume that doesn't overwhelm (i.e., it doesn't smell--or taste--like potpourri). We'll take it over a dozen long-stemmed any day.
