Cupcakes & Cocktails - Cupcake Martini

Last night Dulce Cupcakes hosted their Cupcakes & Cocktails event with us at Varsity Grill. Tonya and Sarah the owners & bakers of Dulce wanted a chance for their clients to sample Dulce's cupcake signature flavors and the new seasonal flavors they have to offer! My new favorite is the Pumpkin Spice cupcake. My job was to come up with 2 cupcake inspired martinis to go along with the event. Below are the yummy recipes for you to try.

Cupcake Martini
1.25 oz Stoli Vanilla Vodka
1 0z Godiva White Chocolate Liqueur
2 oz. Chocolate Milk or Chocolate Soy Milk
Strawberry Frosting
Chocolate Sprinkles

Combine all ingredients in a martini shaker filled halfway with ice and shake until outside of shaker is frosty. Stain into a martini glass that has been rimmed with strawberry frosting & dipped in chocolate sprinkles.

Dulce Martini
2 oz Stoli Vanilla Vodka
2 oz Pineapple Juice
splash of grenadine

Combine Stoli Vanilla Vodka and pineapple juice in a martini shaker filled halfway with ice and shake until outside of shaker is frosty. Stain into a chilled martini glass and add a splash of grenadine. This martini tastes like a pineapple upside-down cake!
