Happy Valentine's Day my darling. I love you very much.

This is for you:

Royal Romance
1 1/2 oz gin
1/2 oz orange liqueur (cointreau, grand marnier...)
1 oz passion-fruit juice
2 dashes grenadine syrup

Shake all ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with flamed orange peel, and serve.
UPDATE: The Federal Government thinks marriage is a good idea too.
