Categories     beverage

Time 10m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Chocolate Chipotle Powder, recipe follows
1 1/2 ounces dark chocolate liqueur
1 1/2 ounces chocolate vodka
1 1/2 ounces tequila (preferable 100 percent agave reposado)
1 1/2 coffee flavor liqueur (recommended: Kahlua)
2 tablespoons high quality cocoa powder
1 tablespoon ground chipotle (dried, smoked jalapenos)
1 tablespoon ground pepitas (toasted pumpkin seeds)

Steps:

  • Spread the Chocolate Chipotle Powder out on a large plate. Rim 2 (8-ounce) martini glasses by rolling the edge of each glass on a clean wet sponge, then rolling the edge over the powder. Tap the glass gently to knock off the extra powder. Pour the rest of the ingredients into a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake vigorously until the outside of the shaker is frosty. Strain immediately into the glasses and serve.
  • Fold the ingredients together slowly and carefully so as not to knock the powder into the air as the chipotle powder can burn your nose and eyes.

MEXICAN CHOCOLATE MARTINI

An exquisite after-dinner cocktail. Potent and spicy notes going down with a nice long, cooling dark chocolate finish. Styled after some Mexican chocolate cupcakes I adore, and the more traditional Mexican hot chocolate. The key to any great martini is good liquor, use the best you have and you won't be disappointed.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, you can use Mexican chocolate instead of semisweet chocolate. Mexican chocolate is made with a blend of spices, including cinnamon, nutmeg, and chili pepper, which give it a unique flavor that pairs perfectly with the chocolate martini.
  • If you don't have chocolate liqueur, you can use another type of liqueur, such as Kahlua or Grand Marnier. However, chocolate liqueur will give you the best flavor.
  • You can garnish the martini with a chocolate shavings, a chocolate-covered coffee bean, or a cinnamon stick.
  • If you want a sweeter martini, you can add a little simple syrup or agave nectar.
  • For a boozier martini, you can add an extra shot of vodka or tequila.

Conclusion:

The Mexican chocolate martini is a delicious and festive cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a special cocktail, give the Mexican chocolate martini a try.
