Godiva Chocolate Martini

Day 240

Godiva Chocolate Martini

3.5 shots out of 5

It's day 240, that means those of you who have been with me on my adventure from the beginning have tuned in for a little over 34 weeks!  8 months have gone by and we only have 4 more to go.  Time sure flies when you're making cocktails.

I gave tonight's cocktail 3.5 shots out of 5.  This is a good cocktail.  So good that it reminds me of chocolate milk.  But chocolate milk?  I wanted a cocktail........maybe something with a little bit of a bite to let me know, YES there is alcohol in here, NO you didn't just take a sip from your toddlers sippy cup.  I found this recipe on the webtender site.  I had also found another one somewhere else with vanilla vodka and Godiva Chocolate Liqueur only......maybe I'll try that one next time.  One of the ingredients in this cocktail is half & half, and I didn't have any, so I substituted 1/2 of it with milk and the other 1/2 of it with cream.

Here is the recipe for a Godiva Chocolate Martini:

• 3/4 oz Godiva Chocolate Liqueur
• 3/4 oz creme de cacao
• 1/4 oz vodka (this is probably why I don't taste the bite I want to taste)
• 1 1/4 oz half & half

In a shaker, add ice and all of the ingredients above.  Shake up your mixture really good.  Strain your cocktail into a chilled martini glass.

Here is a photo of the end result:

Here's to chocolate milk.  Here's to finding another version of this cocktail that has some kick!
