Since I’m apparently posting about drinks I’m not a big fan of, I might as well put this one up. I just don’t enjoy very sweet drinks, although I’m not opposed to the occasional White Russian. That being said, lots of fabulous folks like sweet alcohol, and if you’re one of them, this is for you. Although it’s not a real martini, it’s named after the restaurant and bar drinks that inspired it, and in honor of its greatest fan.

It’s that easy, and ridiculously popular. Feel free to add or substitute some Chambord for raspberry flavoring, although I tend to drop the Bailey’s and Kahlúa when I do that. One final note is that I think the Godiva has a poor aftertaste, so it might be worth finding a substitute. Crème de Cacao tends to be a bit thin, but it’s been years since I stocked it so I’ll leave experimentation as an exercise to the reader. Especially since my alcohol is currently relegated to a small space in a relatively small apartment, and new purchases are on an even smaller budget during grad school.
