Especially if you have kids. Tell me what you do to take care of yourself and squeeze in some relaxation so you don’t burn out. It’s okay if that includes one of these Baileys Chocolate Martinis.

    Do you chill each ingredient or mix with ice prior to pouring?

    Reply

    • Baileys Chocolate Martini Recipe (21)Lisa Longley says

      Either would work well here. I, personally, would go with chilling your ingredients to avoid getting small pieces of ice in the drink.
