Martini Break!

Martini Break - The Choco Latte Martini

The weekend is here! And what better way to get it started than with a delicious martini recipe! This time, let’s try a soon-to-be classic….the Choco Latte Martini. This recipe combines two of my favorite things: chocolate and lattes! Chocolate is the ultimate comfort snack, and the dark variety can have beneficial effects on your health. Lattes are also fabulous in their own right (think of how much you’ve spent at Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts since the beginning of this year). It is only right to bring both of these awesome treats together in a cocktail. So here we go! Let me know what you think!
