Ingredients
Scale
Rim and Garnish
- ½ tbsp chocolate syrup (preferably Hershey’s)
- 1 tbsp crushed graham crackers
- 1 marshmallow (for garnish)
- bamboo stick (for marshmallow skewer)
Martini Ingredients
- 1 oz. chocolate liqueur (dark or milk)
- ½ oz. marshmallow vodka
- ½ oz. heavy cream
Instructions
- Prepare Glass Rim: Dip the rim of your martini glass into the chocolate syrup, ensuring an even coating, then immediately dip the rim into the crushed graham crackers to create a textured, sweet crust.
- Add Chocolate Liqueur Layer: Slowly pour 1 oz. of chocolate liqueur into the glass by pouring it over an upside-down spoon to create a smooth, controlled flow and avoid mixing.
- Mix Cream and Vodka: In a separate container, stir together the ½ oz. heavy cream and ½ oz. marshmallow vodka until fully blended to prepare the creamy vodka layer.
- Add Vodka Mixture Layer: Slowly pour the vodka and cream mixture over an upside-down spoon into the glass to create a distinct layered effect above the chocolate liqueur.
- Prepare the Marshmallow Garnish: Skewer one marshmallow onto a bamboo stick for toasting.
- Toast the Marshmallow: Brown the marshmallow gently over an open flame or under a broiler, being careful not to let it catch on fire; this adds a smoky, toasted flavor reminiscent of campfire s’mores.
- Finish and Serve: Lay the toasted marshmallow skewer across the rim of the glass. For dramatic flair, light the marshmallow briefly before drinking, then stir the drink to combine layers and enjoy the indulgent martini.
Notes
- Pouring the liquids over an upside-down spoon helps create distinct layers in the martini.
- Use a steady hand and slow pour to maintain the layered visual effect.
- Be cautious when toasting the marshmallow; do not leave it unattended near the flame.
- For added effect, you can sprinkle extra crushed graham crackers on top after layering.
- This cocktail is best enjoyed immediately after preparation to enjoy the toasted marshmallow at its freshest.
