S'moretini

Day 234

S'moretini

4 shots out of 5

One soccer game and one baseball game down, one soccer game and a SF Giants Playoff game to go.  Four games in one day and only one of them that I can sit, drink beer, eat pizza and yell at the bad plays at.  I'm sooo very excited that the playoffs are officially beginning to day!

I gave tonight's cocktail 4 shots out of 5.  I have been wanting to make this cocktail for quite some time now since I first saw it on Pinterest.  Problem is.......there are so many different versions of it I didn't know what to choose.  I decided to X out the simple two ingredient versions and look at the rest.  I found a couple that sounded pretty good, and with that I took some of their ingredients and added or substituted my own in as well.  I think what I made is pretty darn good.  Doesn't taste like I'm sitting at a campfire roasting marshmallows and making my own S'mores, but it tastes good enough!  

Here is my version of a S'moretini:

• 1 1/2 oz marshmallow vodka
• 3/4 oz white creme de cacao
• 1/4 oz Kahlua
• 1 1/2 oz Irish cream
• chocolate syrup (some for rimming the glass & some for the marshmallow)
• 1/2 sheet of a graham cracker (crushed into little crumbs)
• 1 big marshmallow

Glass:

Rim your martini glass with chocolate syrup.  Dip your chocolate rimmed glass into your graham cracker crumbs.

Marshmallow:

Put chocolate syrup on the bottom half of your marshmallow.  Dip the chocolate half in your graham cracker crumbs.  Stick a pick half way through the bottom on the marshmallow.

Cocktail:

In a shaker, add ice, marshmallow vodka, white creme de cacao, Kahlua and Irish Cream.  Shake it up well and strain your cocktail into your rimmed cocktail glass.  Lay your marshmallow on a stick across the top.

Here's to making your own creation.  Kinda makes me want to make a real S'more and eat it as well!

Cheers!!
