Since I'm going to be busy for the rest of the weekend, I thought I'd help you get your holiday weekend started right with a few chocolatini recipes I discovered. I haven't tried all of them yet, but they all sound yummy. :)
"Lady Godiva Chocolate Martini"
2 ounces Godiva Dark Chocolate liquer
2 ounces Creme de Cacao
1 ounce half and half
2 ounces freezing Goldenbarr Chocolate vodka
1 tbsp shaved white chocolate
2 well-chilled martni glasses
Combine Godiva, Creme de Cacao, and vodka in a shaker half full of cracked ice
Shake for one full minute
Add half anf half and gently swirl
Strain into glasses
Top with shaved chocolate
"Godiva Chocolate Martini"
1 1/2 shots Godiva chocolate liquer
1 1/2 shots Creme de Cacao
1/2 shot vodka
2 1/2 shots half and half
Mix all ingredients in a shaker with ice, shake and pour into chilled glass
"Chocolate Martini" (this one skips the half and half, which actually sounds better to me)
Ice
2 ounces chocolate liquer
1 1/2 ounces vodka
1/2 ounce grated chocolate
Shake with ice to mix and chill. Strain into chilled glass. Garnish with chocolate. Makes 1 serving.
Mint Patty Martini (an intriguing variation)
2 ounces freezing Absolut Pepar vodka
2 ounces White Creme de Menthe
1 tbsp Peppermint Schnapps
1 ounce Godiva Chocolate Liquer
1 Starlight mint
2 chilled glasses
Add vodka, creme de menthe, and starlight mint to a shaker half full of ice and shake
Give 10 good shakes, add chocolate liquer and give another 15 shakes. Strain cocktail into glasses. Top each glass with half the Peppermint Schnapps. (I liek these instructions--they have such a "Thin Man" air to them!)
Enjoy! :)
