Chocolate Martini Recipe
This rich Chocolate Martini is perfect for chocolate lovers. Boozy, sweet, and decadent, it is a wonderful after-dinner drink.
Equipment
- cocktail shaker
- Small plate
- Martini glasses
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Vodka
- 4 ounces Chocolate Liqueur
- 4 ounces Baileys Irish Cream
- 3 tablespoons chocolate syrup or ganache
- Chocolate shavings (optional)
Instructions
- Drizzle half of the chocolate syrup inside 4 chilled martini glasses, then add the remaining chocolate syrup to a shallow plate. Dip the top rim of each glass in the chocolate to coat them. Set aside.
- Combine the vodka, chocolate liqueur, and irish cream in a cocktail shaker and add about a cup of ice to the shaker. Shake until thoroughly chilled and frosty on the outside of the shaker, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Strain the cocktail into the prepared glasses. You can garnish with shaved chocolate if you’d like, then serve immediately.
Notes
- Can I garnish the glasses ahead of time? Yes! Decorate the martini glasses with the chocolate syrup, then store them in the fridge for a few hours. If your syrup is on the runny side, freeze the glasses instead to keep the syrup from running down the sides.
- To make chocolate shavings: Run a vegetable peeler on the side of a chocolate bar. This will shave off thin, small shards of chocolate, perfect for garnishing the cocktail.
