Coconut Toffee Martini


  • Author: Imili Johnson
  • Total Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 2 oz caramel vodka (or vanilla vodka for a subtle twist)
  • 1 oz toffee liqueur (such as Buttershots or homemade toffee syrup)
  • 1 oz Baileys Irish Cream (or a vanilla-flavored cream liqueur)
  • 1 oz coconut cream (full-fat for a creamy texture)
  • ½ oz heavy cream (optional, for extra richness)
  • ½ tsp sea salt (enhances the caramelized toffee flavors)
  • Ice cubes (for shaking)

For the Rim & Garnish:

  • Toasted shredded coconut (for rimming the glass)
  • Caramel sauce (for drizzling inside the glass)
  • Toffee bits or caramelized sugar pieces (optional, for garnish)
  • Coconut flakes or a coconut rim (for extra visual appeal)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Rim

Spread toasted shredded coconut on a small plate. Lightly coat the rim of a martini glass with caramel sauce or dip it in honey. Then, press the rim into the toasted coconut to coat it evenly. Drizzle a small amount of caramel sauce inside the glass for a decorative effect.

Step 2: Mix the Cocktail

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice cubes. Add the caramel vodka, toffee liqueur, Baileys, coconut cream, and sea salt. Shake vigorously for about 20 seconds to chill the mixture and create a smooth, creamy texture.

Step 3: Strain & Serve

Strain the cocktail into the prepared martini glass. The drink should have a creamy, velvety consistency with a beautifully balanced blend of toffee and coconut flavors.

Step 4: Garnish & Enjoy

Garnish with a sprinkle of toffee bits, a drizzle of caramel, or a toasted coconut flake on top. Serve immediately and enjoy this decadent, tropical-inspired martini.

Notes

  • Shake Well for a Smooth Texture: The key to a perfect creamy martini is shaking the ingredients well with ice to create a silky, frothy consistency.
  • Chill the Glass: For an extra-refreshing martini, place your glass in the freezer for 5-10 minutes before serving.
  • Best Coconut Cream: Use full-fat canned coconut cream for the richest, most velvety texture. If unavailable, coconut milk can be used, but the drink may be less creamy.
  • Homemade Toffee Syrup: If you don’t have toffee liqueur, make a simple syrup by melting brown sugar and butter with a splash of water.
