Chocolate Martini Ingredients

  • Chocolate Liqueur I used Godiva chocolate liqueur.
  • Irish Cream Liqueur Such as Bailey’s.
  • Vodka Unflavored is best.
  • Chocolate Syrup For garnishing the inside of your glass.
  • Grated Chocolate for garnish

The best glassware to serve a martini in is a classic martini glass. We have dozens of recipes to make using these timeless glasses.

How to make a Chocolate Martini

This is a straightforward drink to mix. My favorite part of making this drink is the chocolate syrup swirl.

  • Drizzle chocolate syrup into a chilled martini glass and set aside.
  • Shake equal parts chocolate liqueur, Irish cream and vodka with ice, then pour in the the prepared glass.
  • Garnish with grated chocolate for a classy finish.

Recipe Variations

  • If you want to make this martini a little less boozy, feel free to use heavy cream instead of Irish cream.
  • Swap the chocolate liqueur for a flavored chocolate liqueur like peppermint to create a seasonal drink.
  • Try a flavored vodka if you want to add a subtle flavor like cherry or raspberry to your chocolate martini.

Tips for making

  • I found that chilling the martini glass for a few minutes beforehand helps set the syrup so the lines don’t run too much.
  • Add a sprig of mint or an orange slice if you want to add a natural garnish.
  • Creme De Cacao is an interchangeable ingredient with Chocolate Liqueur.
