Now presenting, the Chocolate Cherry Martini by John DeKuyper and Sons.
This one sounds delicious, folks. And, some of my compadres have tried the DeKuyper Crave Chocolate Cherry Liqueur by itself, and say it is well above expectations.
Here's the recipe, straight from the bottle tag:
1-1/2 parts JDK & Sons Crave Chocolate Cherry Liqueur
1 part Premium Vodka (regular or vanilla)
Combine ingredients in a shaker filled with ice. Shake vigorously and strain into a martini glass. Garnish with a maraschino cherry (optional).
There you have it, a Chocolate Cherry Martini.

Cruzan 9
Looking for a mixed drink recipe for the Cruzan 9 Spiced Rum, I found the following in an old Indiana Beverage Journal - aka the 'Beverage Bible'. BEAMIXOLOGIST - Bobby "G" Gleason Mixes....
He describes the Cruzan 9 Spiced rum as "On the nose it's vanilla forward with caramel and spice. The sweet, aromatic rum also has allspice, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, ginger, mace, pepper and juniper berries that combine to create this smooth, easy drinking rum."
Swizzle #9 is the name of the drink.
1-1/2 parts Cruzan 9 Spiced Rum
1 part Cruzan Aged Dark Rum
1 part orange juice
2 parts Simply Apple fresh pressed apple juice
1-1/2 parts fresh lemon sour
Build over crushed ice in order in a tall or Hurricane glass and swizzle. Garnish with a half moon slice of orange on the rim and a dusting of fresh ground nutmeg.
Now, doesn't that just simply sound tasty! Thanks Bobby!

Crown Royal Black
It seems as if cranberry juice has made it's way into a number of drink recipe's these days.
When I was at the Brickyard 400 in Indianapolis, there was a drink made with Crown Royal Black. It also contained Sprite and Cranberry juice. I do not remember the name of the drink, but it was very tasty!
