Chocolate Turtle Martini Recipes

CHOCOLATE TURTLE MARTINI

Steps:

• Sweeten the cocoa powder to your liking by mixing the cocoa and powdered sugar.
• Take a large martini glass and very carefully coat the rim in caramel sauce from the squeeze bottle, being careful not to let it drip too far down the sides.
• Then, dip the entire rim of the glass into the sweetened cocoa powder, being sure to coat all of the caramel.
• The desired effect is a chocolate dusted caramel rim.
• You can also put just a drop of chocolate syrup at the bottom of the glass for color.
• Shake the vodka, creme de cacao and praline liqueur in a martini shaker with ice to chill.
• Fill the martini glass nearly full with crushed or shaved ice, being careful not to touch the rim.
• Strain the drink into the martini glass.
• Garnish atop the floating ice with a roasted pecan half and a small piece of chopped chocolate.
• Or you can garnish it with a half of a Turtle candy by making an incision and hanging it on the rim of the glass.
• Also, if you prefer your martini to LOOK dark like chocolate, I would use the dark creme de cacao, however, the garnish will stand out more when the drink is more translucent.
