Ingredients

- 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.
How To Make A Raspberry White Chocolate Martini
Step 1: Fill a cocktail shaker with ice, then add raspberry vodka, white chocolate syrup, and raspberry syrup.

Step 2: Shake vigorously for 20–30 seconds, until the shaker is frosted. Strain into a chilled martini glass and serve immediately.

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.
