If you'll be alone this Valentine's day but you'd still like to treat yourself to something special, we've got you covered with a French-inspired meal for one. Stir up a cocktail, tear open a good loaf of bread, and end everything with a healthy slice of chocolate cake. 

Some things just go together -- and the obvious accompaniment to food is drink. Welcome to Booze52, in which we explore all manner of libations, from A to Z, that do much more than just wash down a meal.

Today: Gin -- with a squeeze of lime -- becomes much more sippable than you once thought.
