A playful Easter spin to a classic Martini, and the crushed mini eggs on the rim give it a yummy crunch. This creamy cocktail is a great Easter alternative for anyone who loves a Baileys in the winter.
Ingredients
- 25g Cadbury’s Mini Eggs (Other brands of mini chocolate eggs are available!)
- 1 tsp honey
- 25ml crème de cacao
- 25ml Baileys
- 50ml vodka
- ice
Method
- Crush the Mini Eggs in a pestle and mortar then tip onto a small plate.
- Brush the rim of a martini glass with a little of the honey using a pastry brush then dip the glass into the crushed Mini Eggs to stick them on.
- Pop the glass in the fridge until you need it.
- Pour the crème de cacao, Baileys and vodka into a cocktail shaker with a handful of ice and shake until the outside of the shaker feels really cold.
- Strain into your prepared glass and serve.
Bloody Mary rim salt
- Add a teaspoon of each ingredient to a small bowl or jar.
- Give it a mix or a shake!
- Simple.
How to rim your glass
- To rim a glass, rub the cut edge of a lemon wedge around the edge of the glass. The fresh lemon juice imparts some tart flavour and its sticky juice will help the salt and spices to stick.
- Water will not have the same effect and will make your salt rim dissolve more quickly.
- Pour some of the Bloody Mary rim salt mixture onto a small plate.
- Place the glass upside down onto the plate and twist gently to coat the rim.
