We’ve got a new look for the New Year. Ditched the brown backgrounds. Improved our font. Much sexier. So sexy, in fact, that everyone reading this entry is deserving of the Sexual Hangover Martini (pictured in front, with Mav's Caramel Apple Martini in back).
I have an arsenal of about five go-to drinks that never disappoint or let me down. The Sexual Hangover is at the top of that list – most often employed in the following circumstances:
1) After sex
2) Amidst a chocolate craving
3) To treat pain (we’re talking sex injuries, menstrual cramps and/or psychic pain)
The Sexual Hangover is deeply chocolate tasting, spicy and has just enough cream to smooth out the drink without making it heavy. Oh, and it packs a punch. This isn’t a martini that tastes just like chocolate milk. You’ll know you are indulging in a very adult delight when you take a sip of this baby. The recipe that follows is for a solid 4 oz. drink.
1 ½ oz. Chocolate Vodka
½ oz. Vanilla Vodka
1 oz. Dark Crème de Cacao (*)
2/3 oz. Starbucks Cream Liqueur (%)
1/3 oz. Cinnamon Schnapps (#)
- Drizzle martini glass with chocolate syrup and/or rim with chocolate cocoa powder
- Shake, strain, pour and enjoy!
I implore you to try this drink. It puts most chocolate martinis you’ll find in a bar to shame.
Bye.

(*) Preferred: Bols or DeKupyer Dark Crème de Cacao; Also works: Godiva Liqueur
(%) Also works: Bailey’s Irish Cream or Kahlua cut w/ Cream
(#) Preferred: Aftershocks; Also works: Goldschlager
