What food goes with a chocolate martini?
If you’re looking to double up on dessert, serve this chocolate martini with Oreo cookie balls or chocolate pudding pie for a chocolate lover’s dream spread. Need a break from the richness? Our no-bake blackberry cheesecake bars or raspberry tiramisu would be perfect sweet accompaniments to your cocktail. Of course, you can never go wrong with a cheese and fruit board to balance the sweet and savory (our ultimate holiday cheeseboard would be an ideal pairing year-round).
What should I top mine with?
We love topping ours with shaved chocolate or a pinch of cocoa powder, but feel free to get creative on the garnishes! Try adding a strawberry or a spring of mint, or even adding crushed Oreos to the rim! The more the better, we always say.
Love dessert cocktails? You have to try our drunken peanut butter cups or tiramisu White Russians on for size.
