Do you need a quick feel-better drink to end a long day? How about vodka and chocolate? Well, we already know that chocolate makes us feel better, but combining it vodka might just hit the sweet spot. Here is a quick and easy recipe to try on some nights when you just need a night cap.

Ever wonder who invented chocolate martini? Well, it was believed that classic movie star Rock Hudson was the first one to create the recipe. In 1955, he and Elizabeth Taylor were filming Giant in Texas. The two friends shared a love for chocolate and martinis, then one night they added chocolate liqueur and syrup to a vodka. Thus, the birth of the popular dessert cocktail.

To make it, you will need a cocktail shaker, a martini glass, chocolate liqueur, Baileys Irish cream, ice, and vodka. You may also opt to add chocolate syrup and shaved chocolate for garnish.

Easy, right? This recipe will make 2 glasses but if you want to make more, then simply adjust the ingredients accordingly.
