FAQ’s

Can You Freeze Chocolate Mint Martinis?

This chocolate mint martini recipe will not freeze well due to the inclusion of vodka. Vodka freezes at a much lower temperature than what most home freezers are set to.

What Can You Substitute For Whole Milk In A Chocolate Mint Martini?

You can use 2%, 1% or skim milk in place of whole milk in this recipe. The main difference you may see is that the martini is not quite and thick and creamy.

If you choose to substitute in a milk-alternative, such as almond milk, you may also notice a slight change in the overall flavor.
