Julie's Chocolate Martini on Recipe Wednesday

Just in case some of you need a little something to wash down your happy pills today like me, since your candidate didn't win last night. And no, I am not suggesting we all drink ourselves into oblivion...because that won't do us any good. But it doesn't hurt to mix up a yummy drink to sip on and take the edge off :)  This recipe is great for just making one, or enough for a whole group of friends and family!  I will choose to calm down a bit before I write about the disappointment I feel over the election, and pray. But one thing I know for sure...no matter who won president of the United States, my Father is still King of Kings and Lord of Lords, and reminding myself of this is how I fell asleep last night once the news stations called the winner. What else is there to do now, but smile and just move on :/

Julie's Chocolate Martini

1 shot Godiva Chocolate Liquor
1 shot Vanilla Vodka (I like Absolute)
1 shot Kahlua Coffee Liquor
1 shot Bailey's Iris Cream
1 shot Milk or Cream depending on how many calories you are willing to intake :)

Place all in a cocktail shaker with ice, and shake well. If you want to get fancy, lightly moisten the rim of your martini glass and dip in hot chocolate powder mix; or skip the moistening of the rim and dip into a small saucer of melted chocolate chips. Glasses can be prepared in advance if you are expecting company.
Drizzle around the inside of the martini glass with Hershey's Chocolate Syrup, pour drink mix from cocktail shaker, sip and enjoy!!!

(Double the above recipe if your shaker will permit in order to make more than one at a time for guests)

If this is too strong, you can always add more milk or cream. Or if you would like, to omit the milk or cream, that will work too.  Don't drink too many as they pack a punch, and for sure NEVER drink and drive!!!
