When making a Love Potion #9 cocktail, I’ve got some tips to ensure it’s perfect every time. 🍹

• Ingredients Matter: Fresh is best! Using fresh berries and juices will enhance the flavor. Trust me, you’ll taste the difference!
• Chill Everything: Make sure the glasses, shaker, and ingredients are cold. This keeps the drink refreshing.
