Description

The Pineapple Cheesecake Martini is a tropical delight that combines the creamy texture of cheesecake with the refreshing taste of pineapple. Each sip offers a luscious blend of flavors, reminiscent of a summer getaway, with a smooth finish that leaves you craving more.

Ingredients

Scale

1 ½ oz vanilla vodka
1 oz pineapple juice
1 oz cream liqueur (such as Baileys)
1 oz heavy cream or half-and-half
½ oz simple syrup (optional, for extra sweetness)
Ice cubes

For the Rim & Garnish:
Crushed graham crackers
Whipped cream (optional)
Fresh pineapple wedge

Instructions

Begin by preparing your glass: moisten the rim with a little pineapple juice and dip it into crushed graham crackers to create a crust.
In a cocktail shaker, combine the vanilla vodka, pineapple juice, cream liqueur, heavy cream, and simple syrup (if using).
Add a handful of ice cubes to the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well chilled.
Strain the mixture into the prepared martini glass.
Top with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired, and garnish with a fresh pineapple wedge.

Notes

This cocktail can be made ahead of time; simply mix the ingredients (without ice) and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours before serving.
Store any leftover martini in the fridge for up to 24 hours, but it’s best enjoyed fresh.
For a lighter version, substitute heavy cream with coconut milk.
