This chocolate martini recipe is so delicious and decadent that you’re going to hate me! Why? Because you are going to want to drink a lot of them. This delightful cocktail tastes like a boozy melted milk shake. So here’s my warning. Have one or two and be done. You’ll thank me in the morning.

Okay, so you won’t really hate me. You will love me because this rich, creamy and delicious cocktail will be your new first choice. You just have to apply some self discipline and only drink one. Or two. But never three. They’re 100% booze!

You have been warned. I will not be responsible if you consume more than two! 😉

Helpful tips

Although I use Godiva chocolate liqueur in this recipe, the brand stopped making their liqueur. So, any chocolate liqueur will work.
I like to garnish this cocktail with chocolate sauce around the rim of the glass and then dip the rim in finely chopped dark chocolate.
For the garnish, use the chocolate of your choice but I prefer dark chocolate, like Dove brand. (Dark chocolate is my chocolate of choice to eat as candy, too!)
Dark chocolate also makes the garnish stand out more from the Godiva chocolate martini itself. Milk chocolate will look too much like the drink.
If you don’t have RumChata you could use Baileys Irish cream instead, but RumChata is definitely the way to go.

How to make the chocolate martini

Pre-step

Cut some dark chocolate into very small pieces and place them on a small plate. Stick your finger in chocolate sauce and run it around the rim of your glasses. Dip the rims into the chocolate pieces. Lift the glasses from the chocolate, gently shake any excess chocolate, right the glasses and set aside.

Fill your cocktail shaker half way with ice. As you measure each ingredient below, pour it into the cocktail shaker.

Step one

Gather the ingredients – Godiva chocolate liqueur, RumChata liqueur and caramel flavored vodka.

Step six

Strain and divide between the martini glasses. Oh! And lookie loo, there’s more in the shaker! If this happens to you, grab a little glass and pour it in. I always love a sidecar of yumminess.
