Chocolate Covered Cherry Martini. That sounds lovely. Since I was little, I have been obsessed with chocolate covered cherries. For some reason, the only times I would eat these sweet treats was at Christmas time and Valentine’s Day. That certainly was not enough for me to get my “fix” of these delectable chocolates.

This Chocolate Covered Cherry Martini is for everyone who loves eating chocolate covered cherries. It has a decadent and smooth taste. Since you don’t bite into this yummy drink, you don’t get a crisp snap. Rather, this chocolate cocktail provides a stunning burst of cherry flavor with each sip. A must try for anyone who loves a great dessert drink!

Chocolate Covered Cherries

My favorite ones are the Cella’s Chocolate Covered Cherries. They come in milk chocolate and dark chocolate variations. Both are equally delicious!

Cella’s own description of the candies describes them as a premium chocolate with a plump cherry that offers a classic “snap” when biting into it. It is is accompanied by a 100% liquid center (the only brand offering such a feature!), making it a truly unique eating experience.

If you didn’t know what those were before, I’m sure you will seek them out now! I am wishing I had those when I made this yummy martini the other night, that’s for sure! Although, it’s probably better that I didn’t have dessert with my dessert martini.

Anyway, my point of adding in the description of Cella’s chocolate covered cherries is that I wanted this Chocolate Covered Cherry Martini to be a similar style. In my opinion, this martini needs to be decadent and rather than having a snap of chocolate. It really needs that delicious burst of cherry flavor with each sip. I truly think this recipe has hit the level of excellence that I was reaching for.

Ingredients Needed

As always, dessert martinis are much easier to whip up than any actual dessert. The ingredients are minimal. In this case, you just need cherry vodka and chocolate liqueur. And, basically, you just measure, shake, and pour. Of course, garnishing the glass is always a nice touch!

Here is what you will need to make this chocolate martini:

• 2 oz Cherry Vodka
• 2 oz Chocolate Liqueur Godiva is best!
• Chocolate Syrup for garnish
• 1 Cherry for garnish

Instructions

Don’t feel like you need to garnish the glass, but I find it fun to dress up a plain martini glass with fun swirls of tasty syrups. Additionally, embellishing the rim of a glass transforms any delicious looking cocktail to an exceptionally, delicious looking cocktail!

So don’t hold back. Garnish the glass and get creative with your efforts.

Here is how to make this tasty drink:

Garnishing The Glass

• Tilt the glass on it’s side at a 90 degree angle.
• Drizzle the chocolate sauce on the inside of the glass, approx 1/2″ from the top as you turn the glass so that the sauce covers the entire glass.

Making The Martini

• Fill cocktail shaker approximately halfway with ice.
• Measure and pour the ingredients into the shaker.
• Shake vigorously.
• Pour into garnished glass.

Once that chocolate covered cherry martini is ready, find a nice and relaxing spot to sit down, savor every sip, and just ENJOY!

Dessert Drinks

If you have a sweet tooth, having a dessert like drink will appeal to you more than you know. The creamy goodness of dessert in cocktail form will be just as addictive as dessert itself. Hopefully, you will be able to control yourself with dessert drinks. After all, they do contain alcohol. Therefore, you need to limit yourself in some way. Even if you are in the comfort of your own home without having to leave, drinking too many chocolate covered cherry martinis will likely have you feeling crappy the next day! So just drink responsibly and enjoy the delightful taste that this martini has.

Chocolate Covered Strawberry Martini. That just sounds like a dream. You know what? It is! On Mother’s Day, I made myself one of these strawberry, chocolate-y martini and it was yummy. However, the next time I mixed one of these up, I had forgotten my original recipe and mixed up another version using vodka, Bailey’s strawberries and cream, and creme de cacao. Consequently, it was even better than the first time! Every time I think of this yummy dessert-like martini, my mouth waters and I immediately want to have one. Although this can be a problem, if I think of this drink in the morning!

My kids are actually envious that I can drink these and they cannot. After all, it is a good looking drink. The garnish on the glass with strawberry and chocolate syrup and the big, fat strawberry on the rim is so appealing. Not to mention, the pink color that this martini has. Since it looks so amazing, who can blame them for wanting one?

Occasionally, I have made them ice cream shakes to make it up to them. It’s almost the same thing; chocolate, strawberries, and the creamy factor. Yum! Unfortunately, now every time I make a delicious martini like this, my kids think that I will be making them an ice cream shake! Therefore, I think I created monsters!

Ingredients Needed

As always, I don’t use a lot of unnecessary ingredients whether I am cooking, baking, or mixing up a cocktail. I only choose to add ingredients that add flavor and try to keep the list to a minimum. You can skip the glass garnish, if you want. However, the drink looks exceptional with the chocolate and strawberry syrup. Not to mention, the juicy strawberry that sits on the side of the martini glass rim. Nonetheless, the drink will taste just as yummy if you skip those things.

Here is what you will need for both the glass garnish and the chocolate covered strawberry martini itself.

Glass Garnish

• Chocolate Syrup for garnish
• Strawberry Syrup for garnish

Martini

• 2 oz Vodka
• 1.5 oz Bailey’s Strawberries & Cream
• 1 oz Creme de Cacao

Strawberries & Cream

If you haven’t heard of tried Bailey’s Strawberries & Cream, it is dreamy. In fact, Bailey’s describes this liqueur as just that:

Just the dreamy flavors of ripe strawberry and vanilla, mingling with gorgeous Baileys Original Irish Cream and other ingredients and flavors. Oh yes! Float away in a strawberry bubble of pure pleasure, we won’t tell anyone. Splash over ice, swirl into desserts and cocktails, or drizzle over ice cream for a delicious grown-up treat. That’s hit the sweet spot.

I don’t think I could describe this delicious refreshment better than that! It is just an amazing flavor to add to anything. If you love strawberries, you will love this liqueur. When I spotted it in Total Wine one day, my mind went crazy trying to think of yummy concoctions that I could create with this! Of course, the first thing I wanted to try was a chocolate covered strawberry martini.

Making Your Drink

Garnishing The Glass

• Tilt the glass at a 90 degree angle.
• Drizzle the chocolate sauce on the inside of the glass, approx 1/2″ from the top as you turn the glass so that the sauce covers the entire glass.
• Take the strawberry syrup and repeat the process for covering the inside of the martini glass.

Making The Martini

• Fill a cocktail shaker approx half way with ice.
• Measure and pour all ingredients into cocktail shaker.
• Shake vigorously.
• Pour into garnished martini glass.

Dessert Martini

Chocolate covered strawberries are typically thought of as a Valentine’s dessert. And, yes, they are a great treat to get (or give) on Valentine’s Day. I don’t know anyone that doesn’t appreciate the sweet goodness of a juicy strawberry surrounded by a crunchy chocolate shell. Mmm, mmm.

However, you don’t have to wait until February 14th to indulge in chocolate covered strawberries. Nor do you have to wait until then to sip on this yummy chocolate covered strawberry martini! This is an easy drink to make that you can enjoy on the weekend, as a dessert, when you have friends over. Or perhaps you can make this cocktail for brunch. The taste is delicious so don’t limit yourself to just once per year!

S’Mores Martini sounds like a great idea for anyone who enjoys the taste of creamy chocolate, sweet marshmallows, and crunchy graham crackers. But how can you combine those things in liquid form? It’s pretty easy actually, there are so many flavored vodkas and chocolate liqueurs that whipping up this yummy martini only takes a minute or two. And then you can take your time and sip on it and relax.

More S’Mores

A s’more is a sweet treat that looks like a sandwich cookie. It consists of a chocolate bar and toasted marshmallows that are held together between graham crackers. Typically a summer time snack that kids love to cook on an open campfire, they grab a long stick, pop a marshmallow at the end, and toast it up over the flame in a fire pit. It is a right of passage for many children and a fun dessert. The bonus is getting to eat their creation!

It shouldn’t be a surprise as to where the name for this dessert came from. After all, this sweet, gooey, and delicious dessert, literally, oozes with flavor. As a result, it leaves kids wanting more, and more, and more! It is likely that the name came from an abbreviation of the the phrase, “some more,” shortened to s’mores! Because let’s face it, kids can’t just eat one. They need more, and more, and s’more!

Martini Ingredients

This sweet martini brings you back to your childhood on a warm summer’s night, when the only thing you cared about was how many s’mores you would be allowed to eat.

You won’t need a campfire for this recipe. In fact, you don’t have to cook anything with this delicious martini. Super easy!

Here is what you will need for this s’mores martini:

• 1.5 oz Vanilla Vodka or Marshmallow Vodka
• 3 oz Chocolate Liqueur Godiva is always preferred!
• 3 oz Creme de Cacao
• Fluff optional for glass garnish
• Graham Cracker crushed – optional for glass garnish

Garnishing The Glass

Half the battle of making this dessert-like martini is the presentation for it. Meaning, you will want to put in a little effort and garnish the glass to make it pop. To do this, you will put a small amount of marshmallow fluff on a spoon and rub it on the top of the martini glass so that it covers the entire rim. Next, crush 1 graham cracker well (ground pieces to small pieces stick best) on a small plate. Then, dip the fluff covered martini glass into the graham crumb mixture, making sure you cover the entire rim as much as possible with the graham crackers. It looks so good! And it tastes great too which is a huge part of this martini, you want that marshmallow taste and graham cracker crunch for the full effect when you sip on this drink.

Mixing The Martini

Making an actual s’more isn’t difficult at all, just toast a marshmallow and place that with a piece of chocolate in between 2 graham crackers. Easy. Making this s’mores martini is pretty easy as well. Fill a cocktail shaker approximately 1/2 way with ice. Measure and pour all of the ingredients into the cocktail shaker. Shake vigorously. Then, pour your yummy drink into the garnished glass. Pretty easy.

Enjoy!

Now that you whipped up your mouthwatering martini, you can admire the beauty of it. Take some pictures to capture the moment. And then take a seat where you can take a load off while you sit back and enjoy the delightfully sweet taste of this s’mores martini. You deserve this so take it all in and savor it!
