February 14 is also the day of seduction: we give flowers and chocolates to our loved ones, as it should be on Valentine’s Day. And we invite you to a candlelit dinner, ideally with a bottle of wine. Which begs the question: which one? Interesting. It’s not very difficult. Stimulant. People have been working on love potions since ancient times; Even in ancient times, it was known that some foods, medicinal plants or roots had aphrodisiac effects. Legend has it that Giacomo Casanova, arguably the most famous lover of all time, slurped down approximately 50 oysters a day to increase his libido.
It’s the right amount that matters
The intoxicating and therefore invigorating effect of alcohol has been scientifically proven, but not all alcoholic beverages have the same stimulating effect. For example, red wine creates a relaxing high, while gin or vodka has an energizing effect. However, champagne undoubtedly provides the ultimate “kick” as sparkling wine invigorates the senses with its fresh acidity and tingling bubbles.
Unlike full-bodied drinks, which quickly create a feeling of fullness and therefore have a tiring effect, there is no deterioration in performance after a few glasses. Of course, even with the best lather you shouldn’t overdo it. While it stimulates the appetite in moderate amounts, it has the opposite effect when consumed excessively and the promised date ends in disappointment.
Light and sharp
For a perfect candlelit dinner, you also need to be careful when planning the menu. Peas, lentils or beans should be avoided because they have a carminative effect and can lead to embarrassing situations. Cheese, fatty meat, pizza or french fries should also be avoided because these foods are difficult to digest. This leaves you feeling full and bloated, which isn’t good for your libido. On the other hand, pepper is the best producer of spices. Spice increases blood circulation and ensures the secretion of happiness hormones. Oysters, shrimp and other seafood are known to have aphrodisiac properties due to their high iodine and phosphorus content. Avocados, artichokes, strawberries and raspberries also increase desire, and even dark chocolate has a seductive effect.
As Valentine’s Day approaches, you’ll find countless sparkling wines of different origins and styles in Coop’s extensive wine selection.
