Issue #175 Sweet & Sparkling: The Ultimate Valentine's Day Chocolate and Water Pairing Guide

Hey Y'all, 

 It’s your favorite water enthusiast, The Waterlady, and I’ve got a fun and bubbly Valentine’s Day plan that’s sure to leave you feeling hydrated and totally satisfied. We all know the best part of this holiday is indulging in chocolate, sweets, and all things sweet, but have you ever thought about pairing your favorite treats with a beautiful bottle of water? Well, this year, I’m bringing you a full day of chocolatey bliss with a perfectly paired bottled water at every meal. Trust me, it’s going to be delicious!

Breakfast: Chocolate Croissants & Acqua Fillette Still

Start your Valentine’s Day with a luxurious chocolate croissant, fresh out of the oven (or your local bakery). To balance out the sweet, flaky goodness, pair it with Acqua Fillette Still—a smooth and subtle water from the Italian Alps. Its pure, delicate flavor is the perfect complement to the richness of the chocolate, helping to refresh your palate and keep things balanced.

Lunch: Chocolate Salad & Vichy Catalan Sparkling

Wait, what’s that? A chocolate salad? Yes, I’m talking about a rich, decadent salad topped with dark chocolate shavings or a chocolate vinaigrette dressing. It’s a fun twist on the classic lunch and a perfect opportunity to enjoy a glass of Vichy Catalan Sparkling. This bubbly, mineral-rich water from Spain has a slight tang that pairs beautifully with the bold chocolate and the fresh veggies, making it a match made in heaven.

Snack: Chocolate-Dipped Strawberries & Saint-Géron Sparkling

When it’s time for an afternoon snack, there’s nothing more classic than chocolate-dipped strawberries. For this, I suggest reaching for a bottle of Saint-Géron Sparkling, which is light and effervescent with tiny champagne-like bubbles. The water’s subtle minerality cuts through the sweetness of the chocolate and brings out the natural freshness of the strawberries. It’s like a mini celebration in every sip!

Dinner: Chocolate Fondue & Three Bays Spring Water

For dinner, why not go all out and have a fun, interactive chocolate fondue with an assortment of fruit, marshmallows, and even a few salty snacks to dip? For this indulgent feast, pair your fondue with Three Bays Spring Water from Australia. It’s a wonderfully refreshing water with just the right amount of purity to balance the richness of the chocolate without overwhelming your senses. Perfect for a fun evening of dipping and savoring!

Dessert: Chocolate Mousse & Ferrarelle Sparkling

And of course, we can’t forget dessert! A luscious, creamy chocolate mousse is the perfect Valentine’s Day finale. For this indulgent treat, I recommend pairing it with Ferrarelle Sparkling. Its clean, crisp bubbles will lift the richness of the mousse and add a refreshing zing that makes each bite feel like a little indulgence.

So there you have it—a full day of chocolatey goodness, all paired with some of the finest waters available on salaciousdrinks.com. It’s the perfect way to hydrate, indulge, and celebrate Valentine’s Day like the water connoisseur you are. Eat all the chocolate, sip all the water, and enjoy every delicious moment!

Happy Valentine’s Day, and remember: when you drink the best water, every meal is a little bit more special. 💕
