Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 1.5 oz vanilla vodka: Vanilla vodka provides the smooth, sweet foundation of the martini, evoking the flavor of cookies and adding warmth.
- 1 oz Irish cream liqueur: Creamy and slightly sweet, Irish cream complements the dessert-like quality of the martini, balancing the stronger notes of vodka with a smooth finish.
- 1 oz chocolate liqueur (such as Godiva): Chocolate liqueur is essential for that true cookie flavor, adding depth and richness to the drink.
- 1 oz milk or cream: This ingredient gives the martini its creamy consistency, making it feel like a dessert in a glass.
- Ice cubes: Chilling the cocktail properly is key to getting the right balance and taste.
- Chocolate syrup, for garnish: Adding a chocolate drizzle to the glass not only enhances flavor but makes the drink visually appealing.
- Crushed chocolate chip cookies, for rim: For that authentic cookie flavor and a bit of crunch, cookie crumbs are the perfect finishing touch.
Instructions
Preparation:
To make this delicious drink, follow these simple steps:
Step 1: Prepare your martini glass by dipping the rim into chocolate syrup, then rolling it in crushed chocolate chip cookies. Set the glass aside.
Step 2: Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice. The ice will chill the ingredients, giving the martini a smooth texture.
Step 3: Pour in the vanilla vodka, Irish cream liqueur, chocolate liqueur, and milk or cream. These ingredients create the rich, cookie-like flavor you’re aiming for.
Step 4: Shake the cocktail shaker vigorously for 20-30 seconds. Shaking helps the ingredients blend perfectly and ensures the drink is well-chilled.
Step 5: Strain the mixture into your prepared martini glass. Pouring carefully will keep the drink smooth while maintaining the decorative garnish on the rim.
Step 6: Drizzle chocolate syrup on top for extra sweetness and visual appeal. For an added treat, garnish with a mini chocolate chip cookie.
Notes
For the best results, choose high-quality ingredients. Premium vanilla vodka and a well-known chocolate liqueur like Godiva or Mozart will yield the richest flavor. If you’re using a thicker milk or cream, the texture will be silkier, making the drink feel more luxurious. If you prefer a sweeter cocktail, consider using chocolate-flavored vodka instead of vanilla vodka.
