Godiva Chocolate Martini

Sunday, April 27, 2008 19:51

Image via Wikipedia This is one of my wife's favorite martinis. Well either the chocolate or pomegranate martini. The silkiness of the Godiva Chocolate liquor makes this cocktail ever-so-good! Some ways to present the martini would be to tri-slice a strawberry (make 3 lengthwise partial slices on the berry, but not all the way through) and hand the strawberry over the side of the glass.  Or, drizzle Hershey's Chocolate syrup in fancy patterns on the inside of the martini glass just before you shake and pour.  One last way to present this martini would be to rim the glass with a light coating of cocoa or finely grated milk chocolate.  So whatever your mood there is a perfect way to present this sweet martini!

Long Island Green Tea

Monday, July 2, 2007 14:06

AImage by jasmined via Flickr Here's a mix of my Number 1 cocktail, a Long Island Ice Tea, merged with the ever-healthy Green Tea. I found this recipe last summer but I can't remember from where. The drink is pretty good during the heat of the summer, as you can taste the green tea infused vodka fairly well. If you are planning on making this drink, you will need to prepare the Green Tea Vodka first, see below. Ice 2 ounces Green Tea Vodka, recipe follows 1/2-ounce freshly squeezed lemon juice 1-ounce orange liqueur 1/4-ounce golden rum 2 to 3 teaspoons Simple Syrup, recipe follows Flowery Ice Cubes, for garnish (optional) Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add Green Tea Vodka, lemon juice, orange liqueur, and Simple Syrup. Cover and shake until mixed and chilled, about 30 seconds. (In general, the drink is ready by the time the shaker mists up.) Strain into a tall glass filled with Flowery Ice Cubes, if using.
