Ingredients

The ingredients needed to make a white chocolate raspberry martini.
  • Raspberry vodka: Use raspberry-flavored vodka if available. If not, regular vodka works fine — the raspberry syrup provides most of the fruit flavor.
  • White chocolate syrup: A syrup designed for beverages works best. You can use a store-bought white chocolate syrup or a white chocolate liqueur if you prefer; adjust amounts to taste.
  • Raspberry syrup: Use a prepared raspberry simple syrup or make a quick homemade version with fresh or frozen raspberries. Alternatively, substitute a raspberry liqueur such as Chambord.

Expert Tips

  • Chill the glasses: Keeping the martini glass cold enhances the drink — chill the glasses in the fridge for about 30 minutes before serving.
  • Garnishes: Try a white chocolate rim, fresh or frozen raspberries, a small dollop of whipped cream, or white chocolate shavings for an elegant finish.
  • Espresso twist: Add an ounce of fresh espresso to create a white chocolate espresso raspberry martini.
  • Adjust strength: For a sweeter, lighter drink use 1 oz vodka; for a stronger martini use 2 oz. If you substitute with liqueurs, reduce the vodka so the cocktail doesn’t become too strong.
