To usher in what it calls "a new age of home cocktail drinking," gin brand [Burleighs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burleighs-raspberry-edition-gin) launched its 'Mail a Martini' service last year as a convenient way for consumers to order and enjoy pre-made cocktails. For Valentine's Day this year, the brand is putting a romantic spin on the service with a limited-edition holiday expression.

The [Lychee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lychee-lemonade) and [Rose Martini](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rose-rush) is described as a "balanced and refreshing" cocktail that is made with the Burleighs Pink Edition gin, a lychee liqueur and Liquour de Rose.

For Valentine's Day this year, the Mail a Martini service makes it easy for consumers to get a taste for the spirit made with delicate botanicals like Japanese cherry blossom, pink grapefruit, hibiscus and rose. Once ordered, the £10 cocktail is delivered to consumers in a conveniently packaged pouch.
