S’mores Martini

This s’mores martini is a smooth and creamy dessert cocktail that tastes like the classic campfire treat! Whipped cream vodka, half and half, and chocolate liqueur make it rich and decadent.

Why this recipe works

Smoretini, s’mores martini, whatever you call it… It’s absolutely divine. A combination of whipped cream vodka, chocolate liqueur, plus half and half for a creamy edge is what starts the foundation of this dessert cocktail. But what really sets it apart is the garnish!

To me, the presentation is just as important for this cocktail as the flavor. I mean honestly, you could shake up the ingredients above and someone could argue that it’s just a variation of a chocolate martini. The marshmallow and graham cracker rim really dresses it up, but the dipped and roasted marshmallow garnish truly pushes this drink over the edge. All those toasty campfire treat flavors are essential, and that means we’re getting creative with what goes on top!

Ingredient Info and Substitution Suggestions

VODKA – Several S’mores Martini recipes call for Marshmallow Vodka. Sadly, that’s not really available anymore, except on a couple online shops. Smirnoff replaced their marshmallow vodka with whipped cream flavored vodka, as it has a very similar flavor profile. You can also use vanilla vodka in a pinch.

LIQUEUR – Instead of chocolate liqueur, creme de cacao can be used. Please note that this liqueur comes in a brown version as well as a clear version. They taste pretty much the same, but since vodka is clear, we suggest going with the brown creme de cacao.

HALF AND HALF – Half and half is exactly what it sounds like, equal parts heavy cream and whole milk. You can make it yourself if you can’t find it in stores! Otherwise, you can substitute with heavy cream for a richer, creamier consistency.
