Picture this: Itâs Friday night, youâre just getting off work, and instead of feeling excited to pick up your lover for date night, youâre dreading it because you have nothing planned.Â
And itâs not that you didnât try, itâs just that youâve already done everyyything and you donât know how to make it special anymore. So you rely on your same routine, go to a nice dinner and then fall asleep watching a movie on the couch.Â
Woof. As painful as that is to hear, itâs probably pretty accurate.Â
So if youâre ready to make things a little sweeter, both on date night and in the bedroom, then keep reading for some date night ideas youâve never done before:
Â
1. Craft Cocktail Night (With A Sweet Twist)Â
Okay okay, I hear you. Making craft cocktails at home is fun, but not revolutionary. Howeverrr, we have a way to make things a little more interesting đ
If you havenât seen 9Pines yet, itâs a shot with the equivalent of 9 pineapples, plus mango, papaya, cranberry and cinnamon. And itâs designed to make your đ±or your đđŠ taste sweet.Â
Weâve already created some fun recipes using 9Pines that you can make together on your next date night. After enjoying the drinks, head to the bedroom and see what else is a little sweeter. Â
Â
2. Get Trippy
No, we donât mean take drugs (unless you want to)... what we mean is to go on a flavor trip.Â
These taste-changing tablets are made with a fruit - the Miracle Berry - and temporarily alters your taste-buds. The protein in the fruit binds to the taste receptors on your tongue, making sour, bitter and astringent flavors taste sweet.Â
For date night, experiment with our taste-changing tablets. Start by testing your favorite sour foods - lemons, sour gummies, margaritas - and see how the flavors change before and after taking the tablet. Then, finish off with just your lover, to see how sweet they really are đÂ
Â
3. StaycationÂ
If you really want to go above and beyond, invite your lover over for a âstaycationâ. To set it up, youâre going to incorporate all 5 senses: sight, sound, smell, taste and touch. So that right when your lover walks-in the room, they immediately feel like theyâre on vacation and can fully enjoy.Â
Hereâs how you set up the âstaycationâ:Â
Sight: Dress up and set up mood lighting. Put on lingerie, or your sexiest outfit, so that the first thing your partner sees is you. Plus, turn off all over head lighting, turn the lamps on, or even set up some decorative lights.Â
Sound: Have soft, slow music playing in the background.Â
Smell: Light some candles or burn some incense.Â
Taste: Try the Ultimate Date Night Pack which comes with 9Pines and Taste-Changing Tablets. Both of these will help reduce anxiety by making everything taste a little sweeter. Â
Touch: While the âtasteâ products set in, tease your partner by making a âno touchâ rule for 15 minutes. This means you can touch your partner, but they canât touch you back, to help build excitement and stimulation.
Now, just enjoy your date and see where this âstaycationâ takes you. đ
