• 1 tsp Peppermint Schnapps
• 1 oz Half & Half or Heavy Cream
• 1 oz Vodka

Garnish

• 1 Candy Cane (smashed)
• 1 Candy Cane (extra garnish on the side of the glass)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Garnish

• Place one candy cane per drink in a large ziplock bag.
• Using a hammer, crush the candy canes into small pieces. Enjoy the therapeutic experience, especially during the holiday season.
• Pour the crushed candy canes onto a dish.
• Moisten the edge of your martini glass and dip it into the crushed candy, either covering half or three-quarters of the rim, leaving space to comfortably drink your cocktail.

• Add the Godiva White Chocolate Liqueur, White Creme De Cacoa, Half & Half or Heavy Cream, vodka, and a small amount of Peppermint Schnapps to the shaker.
• Shake the cocktail vigorously for about 20 seconds to ensure a well-blended and chilled drink.

3. Serve and Enjoy

• Garnish the cocktail by placing an additional candy cane on the side of the glass for an extra touch of holiday cheer.
• Indulge in the pepperminty heaven of the White Chocolate Peppermint Martini and savor the delightful flavors of the season.

Party Tips

• To simplify serving, you can prepare a big batch of the martini mixture the night before your party. Just convert the ounces to cups and mix the ingredients in a pitcher.
• Keep it chilled in the refrigerator until your guests arrive.
• When it’s time to serve, fill individual cocktail shakers with ice, pour in the premixed martini, shake, and strain into the rimmed martini glasses.
• This martini pairs perfectly with cheesecake, chocolate cake, or brownies, making it an ideal companion for dessert.
• Whether you’re hosting a cozy gathering or throwing a festive party for the girls, this cocktail will impress your friends and family with its candy cane garnish and delicious flavors.
