Frangelico Chocolate Martini
3.5 shots out of 5
Well I'm on a baseball high! Two games down, two more wins to go! It's just getting too exciting! Last night I was invited to Widmer Bros. Explore Your Craft in San Francisco. Widmer Bros. had a lot of their different beers paired up with some delicious cuisine for us all to try. I found a Pitch Black IPA that they make, LOVED it!! All of their beers we tried were very very good, but it was nice to find another Widmer beer that I love besides their Heff.
I gave tonight's cocktail 3.5 shots out of 5. I found this recipe on the Frangelico site. My first couple sips I really tasted the chocolate flavor, then a few sips later the Frangelico is the flavor I tasted more. All ingredients are accounted for in this cocktail as I can taste them all throughout each sip. I'm not the hugest Frangelico fan and I think that's why I rated this cocktail 3.5, but for those of you who do like it, I think you may just like this cocktail a lot.
Here is the recipe for a Frangelico Chocolate Martini:
- 1 oz Frangelico
- 1 oz vodka
- 1 oz white creme de cacao
- cherry to garnish
In a shaker, add ice and all of the ingredients above except for the cherry. Shake up your mixture very well and strain your cocktail into a martini glass.

Eh, it was okay but I don't think I'll make it again. I prefer leaving out the cacao and adding a good squeeze of lime juice. The Frangelico is sweet enough as is it. I hadn't been to their site in a while, though, and think the Mule and the Caipiroska both sound worth a try. Actually, all I have to do is add a little cranberry to what I have in my glass right now and it will be close enough... be right back...
