Chocolate Dipped Strawberry Martini
Chocolate Dipped Strawberry Martini
What’s the first thing that pops into your head when you think Valentine’s day treat? I bet it’s chocolate, and then I am ready to bet, your next thought will be chocolate-dipped strawberries. There is a good reason why chocolate and strawberries is such a cliche for this holiday – not only they scream sophisticated treat, but the red, heart-shaped strawberries, almost symbolic in appearance, dipped in luscious chocolate are the perfect, seductive, one-bite treat.
Ingredients
3 ounces Vodka, I used Ciroc
3 ounces Creme De Cacao
3 ounces Dark Chocolate Liqueur (I used Thatcher's Organic
4 Tbsp strawberry puree
2 Tbsp heavy cream
2 ounces dark chocolate for decorating glasses
Strawberries for garnish
For decoration, you can use any chocolate you like – white, dark, or milk to dip your glasses. Simply melt it over a double boiler, and then get creative by tilting the glass rim to make those chocolate waves, and drips, or hold the glass vertically, and dip down for a straight edge.
This brings me back to my childhood! Such a fantastic recipe- thank you so much for sharing your recipe and the images of the result!

It is absolutely delicious, and served in chocolate-dipped glasses, it makes for a killer presentation. Be warned though, it goes down dangerously fast!
