It’s been a while since we shared a drink, so I thought we could start up again with this one. I mean, who doesn’t like chocolate?
- 1 part Grey Goose Vodka
- 1 part Amaretto
- 1 part Kahlua
- 1 part Bailey’s (read procedure first)
Pour all ingredients in a shaker filled with cruhed ice and shake well for a couple of seconds. Strain. Pour into chilled martini glasses. Top with 1 part Bailey’s.
Now, wasn’t that worth the wait? Enjoy!
Holiday Martini
You should start with a signature drink when your guests arrive. Then, we offer wine for the rest of the evening.
You will need:
- 6 parts eggnog
- 2 parts vanilla vodka
- 1 part Baileys liqueur
- 1 part white chocolate liqueur
Filled a shaker with crushed ice add the ingredients and shake for a couple of seconds. Strain and pour into chilled martini glasses. Sprinkle a hint of cinnamon on top, make a toast and your evening has begun.
It is a simple recipe but oh, so, good!
A Minty Martini
This could almost be used as a drink AFTER dinner. It is super good.
- 1 part Grey Goose Vodka
- 2 parts Bailey’s
- 1 part Creme de Menthe (clear)
Pour into a shaker filled with cracked ice and shake really well. Strain into prepared martini glasses and sprinkle a few Choco flakes on top.
Try it once….okay, twice!
Olivers Martini
As we will be relocating to Oliver shortly, it is only right that they should have their very own martini. Right? Let’s see if this one works with their logo. “View of Heaven, in the Okanagan”. We could call it “taste of Heaven”…..
You will need:
- 3 parts Chocolate Vodka,
- 2 parts Creme de Cacao
- 2 parts Bailey’s
Pour into a shaker filled with cracked ice and strain into prepared martini glasses that have been garnished with caramel sauce in a decorative pattern.
Switch it up and use chocolate sauce.
Ed ‘n Mark Martini
This is for two very hard working men in the construction business. They have done so much for us, this one’s for them.
- 10 parts Grey Goose Vodka
- 2 parts Frangelico liqueur
- 2 parts Creme de Cacao
- 1 part Bailey’s liqueur
Pour ingredients into a shaker with cracked ice and shake well. Strain into martini glasses. Garnish with a few roasted pine nuts.
When you build your home, make sure you get the best men to get the job done. We did!
Innocent Lady Martini
Fellas: if you want to make brownie points, try this one.
Ladies: this is just for you. Enjoy!

Chocolate Martini
My very favourite!
- 2 parts chocolate vodka
- 1 part white chocolate liqueur
- 1 part Bailey’s liqueur
Make sure the glasses are chilled. Pours 2 parts chocolate vodka, 1 part white chocolate liqueur and 1 part Bailey’s into a shaker with ice and shake well. Strain and pour into chilled glasses. You can add chocolate shavings on top or run chocolate syrup around the glass before adding drink. This is a great ‘signature drink’. That means it is the welcome drink when your guests arrive. After that…..serve wine.
