Liquors and Mixers
- 1 oz raspberry liqueur (e.g., Chambord or crème de framboise)
- 1 oz white chocolate liqueur (e.g., Godiva White Chocolate Liqueur)
- 1 oz sparkling soda water
Dairy
- 1 oz heavy cream (or half-and-half for a lighter version)
Other Ingredients and Garnish
- Ice (enough to fill a cocktail shaker halfway)
- Fresh raspberries (for garnish)
- White chocolate shavings (for garnish)
- White chocolate syrup or sugar (for rimming the glass)
- Prepare the Glass: Place the martini glass in the freezer for 5-10 minutes to chill. For an elegant touch, rim the glass with white chocolate syrup or sugar, then dip it in grated white chocolate or sugar to create a decorative and flavorful edge.
- Mix the Drink: Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice. Pour in the raspberry liqueur, white chocolate liqueur, sparkling soda water, and heavy cream. Secure the lid tightly and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well chilled and frothy.
- Strain and Serve: Strain the shaken mixture into the chilled martini glass using a fine strainer to ensure a smooth and frothy drink without ice shards.
- Garnish the Martini: Add fresh raspberries into the drink or on the rim for a burst of fruity freshness. Sprinkle white chocolate shavings over the top and optionally drizzle melted white chocolate for extra indulgence and visual appeal.
- Enjoy: Serve immediately and savor the creamy, fruity flavors of this elegantly crafted martini.
Notes
- For a lighter version, substitute the heavy cream with half-and-half.
- If you prefer a sweeter rim, use white chocolate syrup instead of sugar.
- Use chilled sparkling soda water for the best fizz and freshness.
- Ensure the martini glass is well chilled to maintain the cocktail’s cool temperature longer.
- Adjust the quantity of raspberry and white chocolate liqueurs to suit your taste preference.
