The Best Chocolate Espresso Martini
Seriously the best chocolate espresso martini recipe. What could possibly be better? This martini recipe is creamy and sweet, complemented with rich dark chocolate flavors, and a sticky sweet chocolate syrup rim.
What is a Chocolate Espresso Martini
A chocolate espresso martini is a cocktail that’s made with vodka or gin and flavors of chocolate and espresso. It’s a dessert-inspired twist on the classic martini just like the hot and dirty martini is a spicy twist.
Today, we’re going to keep it simple and easy with a 4 ingredient chocolate espresso cocktail delight. You can also make this delicious Gingerbread Martini.
Espresso Chocolate Martini Ingredients
There are four simple ingredients used to make today’s chocolate espresso martini:
- Whipped cream vodka
- Espresso
- Chocolate liqueur
- Coffee liqueur
Of course, you’ll also need ice to chill this cocktail, and chocolate syrup for a delicious rim. But altogether, these simple cocktail ingredients make for a creamy, rich and dessert-worthy chocolate martini recipe with a satisfying boost of espresso.
How to Make a Chocolate Espresso Martini
- Rim your favorite martini glass with chocolate syrup. Here are the stemless martini glasses I used today. Now, set aside this glass for later.
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
- Add whipped cream vodka, espresso, chocolate liqueur, and coffee liqueur. Shake until the outside of your shaker shows condensation—that’s how you know your martini is good and chilled.
- Strain into the chocolate syrup rimmed martini glass. Sip and enjoy!
How to Serve a Chocolate Espresso Martini
- Toppings: I kept today’s chocolate espresso martini recipe pretty simple, but you can top yours with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, and perhaps (happy sigh), chocolate covered espresso beans.
- Chocolate rim: Coat the rim of your martini glass in chocolate syrup. It’s not only beautiful, but adds a wonderful sweetness to every sip of your chocolate espresso martini.
- Chocolate curls or shavings on top: You can go extra bold and make chocolate curls to top your espresso martini.
Lemme guess, now you’re wondering what other cocktails I’ve have shakin’ up? 😉 If you have any requests, let a girl know! I can’t wait to hear what you think. ‘Til the next chocolate martini adventure…
