Even though romantic love seems to get all the shine in February, we can’t forget to take some time out to love on the women who lift us up and fix our crowns as well. Galentine’s Day (February 13) is all about celebrating your girl squad and reminding them just how much their love, support, and friendship means to you. Because whether you have a bae or not, we all know good girlfriends can be hard to find.

Galentine’s is the perfect excuse to call the crew over, whip up a delicious at-home brunch and kiki the day away with a few tasty drinks perfect for the occasion. From champagne covered cotton candy to chocolate filled martinis, these cocktails will have you and your girls ready to toast to life, love, and of course, friendship.
