Valentine's Velvet Cherry Martini
Indulge in a romantic and sweet Valentine's Velvet Cherry Martini, a delightful dessert in a glass perfect for special occasions.
Equipment
- Cocktail Shaker
- Martini Glass
Ingredients
- 3 ounces cherry vodka
- 3 ounces creme de cocoa
- 3 ounces heavy cream
- 1 ounce grenadine
- High-quality chocolate syrup for garnish
- fresh maraschino cherry for garnish
Instructions
- First, prepare your martini glass for a beautiful presentation! Drizzle a generous amount of high-quality chocolate syrup artfully inside the glass. For an elegant spiral, hold the syrup bottle steady and slowly rotate the glass. Pop it into the freezer to chill while you gather your other ingredients – this helps the chocolate set nicely!
- Next, grab your cocktail shaker and fill it generously with ice. This step is key for ensuring your martini gets perfectly chilled.
- Now, simply pour in all your liquid ingredients: the cherry vodka, crème de cacao, heavy cream, and grenadine.
- Secure the lid on your shaker tightly and give it a really good, vigorous shake for about 15-20 seconds. You'll know it's perfectly mixed and chilled when the shaker feels icy cold to the touch.
- Carefully strain your smooth, pink martini into your pre-chilled, chocolate-lined glass.
- For that perfect Valentine's Day touch, garnish with a fresh maraschino cherry or two on the rim. Serve immediately and savor this delightful, easy-to-make dessert in a glass!
