Instead of your normal martini with your standard vodka… just use chocolate flavored vodka and some chocolate milk! how easy is that? Oh, skip the olives and garnish with some marshmallows as pictured above. Now, onto three more recipes for chocolate martinis.

  • 1.5 oz creme de cacao
  • 1.5 oz French Vanilla creamer
  • Ice

Combine in a tumbler/shaker, shake, pour into glasses. Garnish with chocolate drizzle, shavings, and a marshmallow.
