Christmas is all about sharing and receiving , so it is only right we share this amazing festive recipe with that your friends and family will love. Peppermint is a flavour traditionally associated with the festive season and when paired with a few other sweet ingredients , it can make for quite an enjoyable cocktail.
White Chocolate Liqueur makes for wonderful creamy base and if you are familiar with your dessert based drink, then this will be a flavour and texture you will love. Along with this you have the Peppermint Schnapps, which is probably what gives this drink its core taste and a very strong one at that. This Martini is also dressed up in the right way with the glass rim covered in melted chocolate and crushed Candy Canes with a Candy Cane garnish to top it off.
So with Christmas day approaching, if you want a strong seasonal sipper to have on a cosy night in with family or friend we highly suggested you give the Peppermint Martini a go.
