Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 oz Vanilla vodka
- 1 oz Hazelnut liqueur (such as Frangelico)
- 1 oz White crème de cacao
- 1.5 oz Heavy cream
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 1 tbsp Chocolate syrup
- 1 tbsp Shaved chocolate or chocolate curls (for garnish)
- 1 tsp Crushed hazelnuts (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Gather all your ingredients and tools: a cocktail shaker, a strainer, a martini glass, and a spoon for garnishes.
Drizzle the inside of a martini glass with chocolate syrup, creating decorative swirls. Place the glass in the freezer for 2-3 minutes to chill and set the chocolate.
Fill a cocktail shaker with the vanilla vodka, hazelnut liqueur, white crème de cacao, heavy cream, and ice cubes.
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds to mix and chill the ingredients thoroughly.
Remove the prepared martini glass from the freezer. Strain the contents of the cocktail shaker into the glass, pouring carefully to avoid disturbing the chocolate decoration.
Garnish the drink with shaved chocolate or chocolate curls on top. For extra flair, add optional crushed hazelnuts around the rim of the glass or sprinkle them on the garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your decadent Turtle Doves Martini!
