Hershey Kiss Chocolate Martini

We had an unforgettable family trip to Hershey, Pennsylvania, where we induldged in the elegance of the Hershey Hotel. One evening, at the sophisticated hotel bar, my wife and I decided to enjoy a few martinis. Among the array of delightful concoctions, our absolute favorite was the Hershey Kiss Martini—a concoction that was clean, tantalizing, and perfectly balanced, not too sweet. Intrigued by its sublime taste, I asked the bartender for the secret. She revealed that it wasn’t just any chocolate but a special ingredient that elevates this martini to an extraordinary level.

The Hershey Kiss Martini

This divine cocktail begins with a harmonious blend of chocolate vodka, vanilla vodka, and crème de cocoa, meticulously shaken over ice.

However, the true magic of this cocktail lies in the chocolate-coated rim. The process starts with a luscious dip in Hershey chocolate syrup, followed by a decadent coating of Hershey hot chocolate mix. Yes, you read that right—the secret ingredient is the hot chocolate mix. This adds a perfect mix of sweetness and rich chocolate flavor that cocoa powder simply cannot replicate.

To complete this masterpiece, add a signature Hershey Kiss to the glass. Then, gently strain the shaken liquor over the Hershey Kiss, creating a visually stunning and delicious drink.

The Best Part

The Hershey Kiss Martini is a clear cocktail, allowing the Hershey Kiss to be beautifully visible while still delivering an irresistible chocolate taste. This combination of visual appeal and flavor creates the perfect martini—an exquisite, memorable experience in every sip!
