The BEST Festive Chocolate Pumpkin Martini Recipe

Chocolate Pumpkin Martini – is the best way to indulge in the taste of pumpkins this season! The temperatures are changing and the days are starting to get shorter. While I LOVE everything about the fall season, some people are not happy that summer has ended. If jeans, sweaters, and boots aren’t enough to make you happy, you might just need a delicious martini to put you in a better mood!

Chocolate And Pumpkin

If you are a chocolate martini kind of person, this chocolate pumpkin martini is for you. If you love the taste of pumpkin, this martini is for you too! And if you love the taste of chocolate and pumpkin together, then you need to try this yummy cocktail tonight!

The chocolate really dresses up the pumpkin flavor and creates a somewhat guilty pleasure with this decadent flavor. And you SHOULD delight yourself with this cocktail because pumpkin is seasonal. That means pumpkin vodka is only around for a few short months. Therefore, you need to get your fix before it’s gone!

Mixing It Up

This Chocolate Pumpkin Martini is easy to make. That’s especially nice since the drink itself is so tempting – you don’t have to wait long to take your first sip!

And you won’t need much for this sweet treat. As with all of my martinis, I try to avoid non-alcohol components in my recipes. This is one of those strong drinks that consists of ALL liquor. Woo hoo! Let’s get mixing!

Ingredients

• 2 oz Pumpkin Vodka Veil vodka
• 1 oz Chocolate Liqueur
• 1 oz Irish Cream
• Chocolate Sauce for garnish

Instructions

Garnishing The Rim

• Repeating the chocolate rimming process, dip the rim into the pumpkin sugar, making sure to cover the entire rim.

Making The Martini

• Fill cocktail shaker 2/3 with ice.
• Measure all drink ingredients and add to cocktail shaker.

Perfect Halloween Cocktail

Halloween is quickly approaching. Normally, Halloween brings about trick or treating and costume parties! In the year of Covid, who knows what is acceptable these days. The rules change constantly so it’s hard to keep up with what is allowed and what is considered a no-no.

I just got a t-shirt that says, Liquor – the glue holding this 2020 shitshow together. It has to be the best t-shirt ever made because it’s 100% true! What we would have done without alcohol during this pandemic? Where would I have shopped during the lockdown? And better yet, how would I have developed my mixologist skills? I guess those are the silver linings of this crazy time.

Regardless of what you are doing for Halloween this year, you can make this awesome chocolate pumpkin martini. Perhaps you have a small get together with family – serve up a big batch of this cocktail. Just keep it away from the kiddos.

And speaking of kiddos, if you take them trick or treating, mix up a chocolate pumpkin martini beforehand and pour it into a travel mug. The kids get candy and you get a buzz! It’s the perfect way to cope with sugared-up children!
