Introducing the Almond Joy Martini Vodka Recipe, a dessert cocktail that’ll transport you straight to a tropical paradise with each sip. So, gather your bartender tools and let’s get mixing!

Key Ingredients

This scrumptious cocktail features two star ingredients:

  • Coconut vodka – This vodka infused with the essence of coconut brings a smooth, rich, and tropical flavor to the drink. It’s the perfect base for our Almond Joy Martini.
  • Amaretto – An Italian liqueur made from almonds, amaretto adds a sweet and nutty taste that complements the coconut vodka beautifully.

How to Make

  1. Fill a pint glass with ice and set it aside.
  2. In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 ounces of coconut vodka, 1 ounce of amaretto, and 1/4 ounce of half-and-half (or regular milk if you prefer).
  3. Shake it up like a pro, ensuring all the ingredients are well mixed.
  4. Drizzle some Hershey’s chocolate syrup inside a chilled martini glass, coating the sides for an extra chocolatey touch.
  5. Strain the cocktail from the shaker into the martini glass.
  6. Garnish the drink with a sprinkle of coconut flakes on the surface for added texture and flavor.
