This year, Valentine's Day has been overshadowed by another event: the Fifty Shades of Grey [1] movie premiere. Women, girlfriends, and perhaps "curious" SOs around America will make their way to theaters today to see Anastasia and Christian's tumultuous love unfold on the big screen. But BDSM may make the average person blush — that's why an adult beverage (and chocolate) may be in order before the movie begins . . .

Fifty Shades of Grey Wines

The book author E L James herself created a line of Fifty Shades of Grey-branded wines [2] ($18 per bottle). Of the two, we recommend White Silk as an intoxicating pregamer for the movie.

Pink Lips Cocktail

Another way to get your buzz on before the flick is with this Fifty Shades-inspired Pink Lips cocktail [3]. Vodka, lime, pomegranate, and Champagne will intrigue your taste buds.

Vanilla Chicken

The only thing better than the steamy love scenes in the book are the parodied versions in Fifty Shades of Chicken. The vanilla chicken recipe [4] will take your breath away.

Fifty Shades of Grey Chocolate

Chocolate is a known aphrodisiac, and this Fifty Shades of Grey chocolate set [5] ($12 for 6 bonbons) from Kollar [6] "aims to please" with its sleek packaging and thematic splattering of paint.
