Ingredients
- 2 oz vodka
- 1 oz chocolate liqueur
- 1 oz hazelnut liqueur
- 1 oz cream

Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients and tools. You will need a cocktail shaker, a jigger for measuring, a strainer, and a martini glass. Make sure your martini glass is chilled for the best experience.
- Fill the cocktail shaker with ice cubes. This will help chill and dilute the ingredients as you shake them together.
- Measure out 2 ounces of vodka using the jigger and pour it into the shaker over the ice.
- Next, measure 1 ounce of chocolate liqueur and add it to the shaker. This will provide the rich chocolate flavor that defines the drink.
- Add 1 ounce of hazelnut liqueur to the shaker. This will complement the chocolate and add a nutty depth to the cocktail.
- Pour in 1 ounce of cream to the shaker. This will give the drink a creamy texture and balance the sweetness of the liqueurs.
- Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This will mix all the ingredients thoroughly and chill the mixture.
- Remove the lid from the shaker and use the strainer to pour the mixture into the chilled martini glass. Make sure to strain out any ice shards for a smooth finish.
- For garnish, sprinkle chocolate shavings on top of the drink. This adds an elegant touch and enhances the chocolate flavor.
- Finally, sprinkle some chopped nuts over the top as well. This will provide a nice crunch and accentuate the nutty flavors from the hazelnut liqueur.
- Your "Chocolate Nut Martini Nutty Uncle" is now ready to be enjoyed! Sip slowly and savor the delightful combination of chocolate and nuts.
Tips
- Chill your martini glass in advance for the ultimate drinking experience - this keeps your cocktail frosty and enhances the overall presentation.
- Use high-quality vodka and liqueurs for the best flavor profile. Premium ingredients make a significant difference in cocktail quality.
- Shake vigorously! The 15-20 second shake isn't just mixing - it's aerating and chilling your drink to perfection.
- For an extra touch of elegance, consider using dark chocolate shavings and toasting your chopped nuts lightly before garnishing.
- Serve immediately after preparation to enjoy the drink at its peak temperature and flavor intensity.
- Experiment with different nut types for garnish - almonds, hazelnuts, or pistachios can each bring a unique twist to the cocktail.
