Ingredients

• 2 (1.5 fluid ounce) jiggers vodka
• 1 (1.5 fluid ounce) jigger vanilla-flavored vodka
• 3 (1.5 fluid ounce) jiggers creme de cacao
• 1 cup crushed ice, divided
• ¼ cup granulated sugar, or as needed
• 1 wedge orange

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine creme de cacao, vodka, and vanilla-flavored vodka in a cocktail shaker. Secure lid on shaker and shake vigorously.

Step 2

Spread sugar onto a flat plate wider than your martini glasses. Run the orange wedge along the lip of each martini glass to assure it's moistened all the way around; dip martini glasses in sugar to coat.

Step 3

Divide remaining ice between the martini glasses. Strain the cocktail into the glasses.
