Cocktail Description
Wine in a martini might sound scandalous, but the Barolo Bliss Martini proves that rules are meant to be broken.
This sophisticated cocktail marries the clean, crisp profile of Ketel One vodka with the complex, full-bodied character of Barolo wine—often called the "King of Wines" for its rich tannins and notes of roses, cherries, and truffles. The addition of Giffard Crème de Cacao brings a subtle chocolate undertone that softens the wine's intensity while complementing its fruit-forward qualities. With its beautiful ruby hue and delicate dusting of white chocolate, this cocktail offers visual drama that matches its nuanced flavor profile. The Barolo Bliss Martini makes for an impressive dinner party opener or nightcap during special occasions, though it's straightforward enough to prepare at home with just a shaker and fine strainer. Pair this elegant sipper with aged cheeses, chocolate desserts, or hearty Italian dishes like osso buco or mushroom risotto to create a memorable food and drink experience.
