Baileys Chocolate Martini

It's called the Bailey's Chocolate Martini, and surprise, surprise, it contains Bailey's. So it's a pretty straightforward cocktail, just three ingredients. So we're going to start with .75 ounce of creme de coco. So there's a lot of cool creme de cocos out there on the market. I'm using Heron Walker. It's probably the most readily available. So you shouldn't have a problem finding it in the store. But Marie Brizard makes a really nice chocolate, so you can check that out as well. Okay, so we've got .75 ounce of our coco in there. Now we're going to do .75 ounce of our Bailey's Irish Cream. There we go. And this one, the cocktail book specifically calls for Bailey's, so you can get it, you can find it. It's easy to find. Now we're using two ounces of vodka. So this cocktail will make you happy. Two ounces of vodka. We're going to use Yacht Club vodka. It's a French vodka. But feel free to use what you dig. So we've got two ounces here. All right. We're going to ice up our glass. And we're going to give it a shake. As always, you want to make sure that tin is kind of frosty on the outside, but then you know you've got a nice temperature. All right. We're going to strain it into our pre-chilled cocktail glass. All right. Kind of gets that creamy, almost frothy, foamy top there. And now the garnish calls for a Hershey's Kiss. So we can either drop that right in the bottom. Fun surprise after you're done drinking. Or you can put it on a pick with the trademark silver and the Hershey's flag. You can just rest that across the top. Whatever you want to do. But we're just going to drop that in there for a nice surprise after. All right. We've got the Bailey's Chocolate Martini Cocktail No. 23 and the Joy of Mixology book by Gaz Regan. You can check out gazregan.com for more on his other books. And be sure to pick up a copy of the Joy of Mixology. Thank you very much.
