Here's a tasty cocktail I whipped up for V-Day last year:

My Funny Valentine

1 1/2 oz. Tanqueray gin
3/4 oz. fresh lemon juice
1/4 oz. honey syrup (1:1 water and clover honey)
1/4 oz. St. Germain elderflower liqueur
1/4 oz. Crème Yvette
1 oz. brut champagne

Shake everything except champagne with ice. Strain into chilled coupe and top with champagne. Garnish with fresh berries in season (I drop a couple of raspberries and/or blackberries in the glass to complement the flavors of the Yvette).
