Mini Egg Martini

Ingredients

Instructions

The Mini Egg Martini is a delightful and indulgent cocktail that captures the essence of Easter with its sweet and chocolatey flavors. It combines the rich notes of crème de cacao, the creamy goodness of Irish cream liqueur, and the smoothness of vodka. The rim of the glass is adorned with honey and crushed Mini Egg candy, adding a touch of festivity and texture to the drink.

Instructions:

1. Begin by rimming a martini glass with honey. To do this, gently dip the rim of the glass into a shallow plate or saucer filled with honey, ensuring that the rim is evenly coated.

2. After rimming the glass with honey, immediately dip it into a separate plate filled with crushed Mini Egg candy. Roll the honey-coated rim in the crushed candy to create a textured and festive rim.

3. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice cubes.

4. Add 25 ml of crème de cacao to the shaker. You can use either dark or white crème de cacao, depending on your preference.

5. Pour in 25 ml of Irish cream liqueur (e.g., Baileys) to infuse the cocktail with a creamy and chocolatey flavor.

6. Add 50 ml of vodka to the mixture. The vodka provides a smooth and neutral base that complements the other liqueurs.

7. Secure the shaker's lid and shake the mixture vigorously for about 10-15 seconds. This chills the ingredients and ensures they are well combined.

8. Strain the shaken Mini Egg Martini into the prepared martini glass with the honey and crushed Mini Egg candy rim.

9. Serve your Mini Egg Martini immediately, and savor the sweet, chocolatey, and creamy flavors with the added crunch and festivity of the candy rim.

The Mini Egg Martini is a fun and whimsical cocktail that's perfect for celebrating Easter or satisfying your sweet tooth. The combination of liqueurs and the candy rim make it a visually appealing and enjoyable drink for festive occasions.
