Recommend your favorite yummy martini

Having Christmas with my side of the family tomorrow an we are traveling back from North Carolina today so instead of making an app or dessert was thinking of bringing the ingredients for a yummy martini.

Maybe a chocolate martini? Or any other recommendations/recipes ??

I am in LOVE with the Grey Goose Pear Martini Recipe- it's right off their website.
But you have to have Grey Goose Pear (La Poire) and it's not always easy to find.


Pear Martini- Grey Goose

ETA- i just read the recipe and the one I had used had DiSarono Amaretto in stead of Vanilla Liqueur. I loved it!

And it's not the same with Absolut Pear- MUST be the Grey Goose. It has a much different flavor- more subtle and realistic- like a fresh cut pear!
The Absolut is just too sweet and fake tasting.

I had a yummy one from Carrabba's for my birthday. It is called Campfire Delight

CAMPFIRE DELIGHT**Just like s'mores by the campfire, a delicious combination of Van Gogh Dutch Chocolate Vodka, RumChata and marshmallow syrup with a rim of chocolate sauce and crumbled graham crackers, topped with a Mallomar®

This sounds delish. I have a sweet tooth and love any type of chocolate martini. Pumpkin martinis are my absolute favorite but sadly that season has passed.

Bailey's Martini! So easy, just Bailey's ( or any Irish Cream, I prefer Carolans myself,) and Vodka!
