More Cream With Your Chocolate Cream Martini?<\/h2>\n

Yes, please. The Barbara cocktail with vodka, creme de cacao and cream is the perfect drink for when the Chocolate Martini by itself just isn\u2019t creamy enough.<\/p>\n

And really, when are they?<\/p>\n

Its that creamy chocolatey goodness of the Barbara cocktail that has propelled its long and decadent history as a dessert drink dating back to at least 1930. Seems like it should be longer and probably is.<\/p>\n

Want To Hear A Tasty Tidbit Of Tipple Trivia About The Barbara Cocktail?<\/h2>\n

Well, we\u2019re going to tell you anyway.<\/p>\n

Out of the hundreds of drink recipes included in the Savoy Cocktail Book, Barbara being one, only two others contained vodka* in the original volume, the Russian (gin, vodka and creme de cacao) and the Yokohama (gin, vodka, oj, grenadine and absinthe). Both with the rare gin and vodka pairing like Kansas City Ice Water<\/a> and one a chocolate gin martini.<\/p>\n

Wow, wonder why that last libation didn\u2019t catch on? Not enough juniper berry flavor for an after dinner dessert drink?<\/p>\n

Truth be told, the Barbara cocktail never really caught on either. No doubt at least partially due to the Brandy Alexander<\/a>. Her spirited brother mixes it up with brandy \/ dark chocolate instead of vodka \/ white chocolate and is very popular as a ladies\u2019 man.<\/p>\n

Or it could be because she sometimes goes by another name. Mr. Boston<\/a>, for example, calls the Barbara Cocktail a Velvet Hammer\u2020<\/sup> instead.<\/p>\n
