Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.79 / 5
The Martini Spiller is a cocktail that presents an unconventional twist on the classic Martini, featuring a combination of chocolate milk and a touch of red vermouth, which together create a unique taste experience. This particular variation dispenses with traditional gin or vodka, leaning into a sweeter, dessert-like profile while using red vermouth as a nod to the classic cocktail's herbal notes. The addition of salt can bring out the flavors of the chocolate and contrast the sweetness, enhancing the overall complexity of the drink. Served in a lowball glass, the Martini Spiller delivers an unusual but intriguing flavor aimed at those looking to explore beyond classic Martini boundaries. Its low alcohol content suggests it is a lighter option, suitable for those preferring milder alcoholic beverages.

Serving suggestions icon

What is the best way to serve a Martini Spiller?

The best way to serve a Martini Spiller is in a lowball glass, garnished with a pinch of salt on top. The salt not only complements the chocolate and vermouth flavors but also adds a subtle contrast to the sweetness. Serve the cocktail cold for the best experience.

How does the alcohol content of a Martini Spiller compare to that of a traditional Martini?

The alcohol content of a Martini Spiller (2.29%) is significantly lower than that of a traditional Martini, which typically ranges from 15% to 30% alcohol by volume (ABV). This makes the Martini Spiller a lighter, more approachable option for those seeking a less potent cocktail.

Customization ideas icon

Are there any recommended customizations for a Martini Spiller to cater to different tastes?

For those who prefer a sweeter or creamier cocktail, consider adding a bit more chocolate milk or using a cream-based chocolate liqueur. If you're looking for a stronger flavor, a splash more of red vermouth can add depth. Additionally, experimenting with flavored salts for the garnish can introduce new and exciting dimensions to the drink.
