If you're not crazy about going out on Valentine's Day, you can stay in and have just as much fun with some good food and this Lovers' Quarrel cocktail, made using Eau Claire Distillery's Parlour Gin, a London Dry style of gin. Head bartender Tyler Gushaty and the bar team at North 53 in Edmonton come up with this citrusy concoction of Parlour Gin, grenadine, Cointreau, lemon juice and orange bitters for the occasion.
