Baby, it's cold outside, but that doesn't mean you have to hibernate until the first signs of spring. We've rounded up 10 ways to cozy up with your S/O this winter that you'll both definitely want to try. 1. Make a blanket fort, grown-up style. Using whatever blankets, sheets and pillows you have around the house, construct and awesome adult-only blanket fort for two. Finish it all off some twinkle lights, and you'll have a cozy fort to snuggle and watch movies in all night long. After all, couples that blanket fort together, stay together (Yes, we totally just made that up). 2. Snuggle up with some spiked hot chocolate. It doesn't get cozier than this, and you can easily incorporate this adult beverage into any one of these date ideas. Domino has some great recipes you should definitely check out. 3. Fireside s'mores for two. Cozy up next to the fire and make s'mores with your love. This would also be a great time for some of that spiked hot chocolate...just sayin'.

Cosmo offered some tips and tricks on how to give a great message, and don't forget the sensual massage oil. 5. How about surprising your S/O with a romantic bath? Think bubbles, flowers, and candlelight (If your tub is big enough, you both might as well jump in). 6. Keep it casual with a candlelight dinner on your coffee table. Then snuggle and watch movies all night long. Find more romantic table settings from Annsliee. 7. Game night and snacks.
