Notes

Tips for the Best Hot Cocoa Martini

  1. Hot Chocolate: For the best flavor, use high-quality hot chocolate. Dark chocolate or a mix of dark and milk chocolate can add depth to the drink.
  2. Creaminess: Adjust the amount of heavy cream to achieve your desired level of richness.
  3. Garnish: For a toasted marshmallow garnish, carefully toast the marshmallow with a kitchen torch before adding it to the glass.
