LAKEVILLE-MIDDLEBORO, Mass.--()--This Valentine’s Day, let Ocean Spray put a little L.O.V.E. in your day. Your loved ones may not say it, but it’s the small things you do that hold you near and dear to their hearts, so give them a little something extra this holiday. Whether it’s a love note in their lunch, serving their favorite meal, or whipping up an extra special treat, Ocean Spray’s here to help capture your valentine’s heart.

It’s often said that the best way to a loved one’s heart is through their stomach. You’ll sweep them off their feet this Valentine’s Day with these fun-filled recipes and tips from the little red fruit with endless possibilities – the cranberry!

L is for Libations

Dazzle your sweetheart with a lovely cranberry creation like the Love Potion. Champagne-inspired drinks including the Cranberry Mimosa and Sparkling Punch will have you feeling all warm and fuzzy inside. Or make their heart skip a beat as Craisins® float up and down in the Lava Lamp cocktail. Top the night off with a kiss—a Cranberry Kiss—using Ocean Spray Cranberry Juice Cocktail.

O is for Oh My

Bake a little love into your holiday by adding a pop of romantic red and decadence to your sweet treats. Indulge in a slice of Outrageous Chocolate Cranberry Fudge Cake made with Ocean Spray Cranberry Sauce for an oh-so-good dessert. For bite-sized romance, Cranberry Chocolate Truffles will have you feeling giddy, and they pair perfectly with a short and sweet love letter.

V is for Violet

Incorporate shades of purple with your red adornments for décor that will make anyone fall head over heels. Bring the lovely color combination to your taste buds with Rustic Cherry Berry Pie Pops and Blueberry Smoothies.

E is for Endearing

It’s easy to say “I’m Crais-y About You” with valentine-sized Craisins® Snack Packs, perfect for the kids’ school parties. Win them over with chocolate by baking up a dozen Chewy Cherry Brownies. Or help the little ones create a Heart Shaped Craisins® Frame for someone special.
