Fabulous! No changes needed. Great martini to serve for special occasions or just because you want a delicious drink. Bet you can’t drink just 1!!!
Brady Haynes
Good martini. Served very cold is yummy.
Michele Valencia
Sweet as heck! Would be ok as a small shot drink, but I certainly don’t want a glass of this stuff.
Jennifer Smith
I’ve served these at several parties. Always a big hit! In fact, lost the recipe and came back to find it again. Yum!
Andrea Garcia
This was pretty good. We thought the pineapple juice was just a bit overpowering, but it didn’t stop us from having 2 each! The second one was fantastic – we dropped a maraschino cherry into the glass with a tiny bit of the juice. We’ll be having these again, wedding or no wedding!

I cut this recipe in half, as 1-1/2 ounces of liquor in a drink is plenty for me. Vanilla vodka is good. Amaretto, too…very nice. And Godiva white chocolate liqueur, which I used for this drink… wonderful. All of it thrown together with cranberry and pineapple juice is just… NOT good. Too sweet, too strong, strange flavor. Reminds me of my youth when everyone brought something to parties – it didn’t really matter what and it was never “the good stuff,” dumped it into a big tub and had at it. We weren’t particularly picky then.

Delicious! And pink – perfect for girl’s night!
Kim Hart
Very tasty drink! I’d try it again. Personally I’m not too fond of very sweet drinks but it was good.
Patricia Hayes
I thought the flavor was good, but it left you wanting more….perhaps something with a kick?
Gabriela Cruz
Yum and Yum! It was a hit at my party and sneaks up on you too!
Robert Rangel
This was the drink of the evening on New Year’s Eve. It was a huge hit!
Chad Sanders
All in all, these were great. At first I could not tell if there was to much pineapple for my taste but after the second round my neighbors and I decided they were perfect.
Michael Ward
Doubled the cranberry & pineapple and my girlfriends loved it. Thanks for sharing.
Kristen Smith
It’s a pretty strong drink but delicious. I thought it tasted like blackforest cake.
Michael Buckley
I didn’t have any creme de cacao on hand, so I used Godiva white chocolate liqueur. Absolutely awesome! The drink is very strong, so I might cut back on the vodka a bit next time.
Geoffrey Joseph
Woo-eee! Holy cow, is this good! I don’t know why I didn’t make one of these sooner. I’m on my second and starting to feel a little happy. They are good, but will sneak up on you. Be careful!
Douglas Gibson
This was fantastic! We had the best night ever! All our friends want this Recipe. Thanx to that night and this recipe we now have a son! NEED I SAY MORE?
Tina Luna
I did not change a thing, I loved it!! Thanks for the great recipe.
Brian Stevenson
Like another person said…I doubled everything but the vodka and it was killer!!! Too many of these and it would hurt!!! EDITED: Have been trying to figure out what it reminded me of…a cherry flavored Tootie pop…when you get to the chocolate center and still have just a little bit of the cherry left….yumm
Alyssa King
Man this is strong! I doubled everything but the vodka and it was much better….thanks for sharing.
Brian Brady
I “think” I’m on my fourth one of these. Made exactly as the recipe called out and I LOVE IT!
