Chocolatini - by Gynelle Alves

Mr. Martini and Ms. Chocolate’s crazy loved-up love affairs’ lovely love-child…

Ingredients:

1 part vanilla vodka

2 parts Amarula / Bailey’s Cream liqueur

Splash of crème de cocao (or chocolate sauce in a pinch)

Optional splash in any of the following if you want a little something extra… flavor-wise:

Orange – Cointreau, Hazelnut – Frangelico, Mint – Crème de Menthe or Peppermint Schnapps, Coffee- Kahlua or Tia Maria…

Ice

Method:

Put everything in your shaker, including your ice and shake it like Outkast’s said Polaroid picture… till the ice chills it through but does not melt. Strain into a martini glass and garnish with chocolate shavings, a chocolate dipped cherry… Enjoy responsibly.

P.S. Optional, but fun! Rub a little beaten egg white over the mouth of the glass, then dip it in brown sugar crystals with a pinch of salt… Or simply wet the rim and dip it into cocoa powder or chocolate shavings.
