Looking to heat up the romance with a couples weekend along the beautiful sugar white sand beaches of South Walton and Destin, Fla.?

The kit includes a bottle of ABSOLUT Vodka, Tervis-style glasses and recipes to create a variety of delicious sunset drinks to toast nature's beauty and your love.

The romance continues with a Solaris dinner cruise [5]for two. The amorous evening out on the water includes a 3-hour sunset cruise on the Choctawhatchee bay, a chef-prepared 3-course dinner and live entertainment for dancing the night away under the stars.
