You Can't Go Wrong With a Chocolate Martini at Your Holiday Party

A chocolate martini is the perfect drink to bust out at your annual holiday party or family get-together. Not only is it a bit classier thanks to a dressed-up chocolate sugar rim but, well, there’s a lot of chocolate throughout. And everyone could use a little more chocolate, right?

Chocolate Martini

Yield: 1 cocktail

Ingredients

  • 1¾ ounces Godiva Chocolate Liqueur
  • ¾ ounces vodka
  • ½ ounces creme de cacao
  • Chocolate sauce, for garnish
  • Sugar, for garnish
  • Instructions

    1. Pour some chocolate sauce onto a small plate. Pour a small amount of sugar onto a second small plate. Dip the rim of your martini glass into the chocolate sauce, then dip into the sugar. Set aside until ready to fill.

    2. Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker and fill with ice. Shake vigorously for 10-20 seconds, until cold. Strain into prepared martini glass.


    Variations

    Once you have the original down, don’t shy away from other chocolate-loving flavor combos. Here are two more variations worth trying:

    Mexican Chocolate Martini

    Add 3 dashes of Fee Bros Aztec Chocolate Bitters (available at many liquor stores) in with the rest of the ingredients and shake. This adds a great cinnamon spice flavor to the cocktail.

    Orange Chocolate Martini

    Add ¼ ounce triple sec to the recipe and shake, then garnish with an orange twist for a hit of citrus.
