The Triple Espresso Martini faltered. First of all I found this one to be sickly sweet. Possibly if there were some half and half to cut some of the sugar it would be fine, but not as is. Secondly, this cocktail was entirely too gooey to want to put my lips on the rim of the glass. To be fair the rim of the glass is dipped in chocolate and I have already confessed my aversion to chocolate. But honestly whether I am a lover of chocolate, caramel (which I do like) or raspberry syrup, these are all things I do not want slicked across my lips or dripping from them while I am attempting to take a sip from a cocktail at a bar with girlfriends or in front of a date. Dipping a cocktail glass in chocolate syrup looks beautiful, but it is not the wisest choice for a cocktail rimmer. Lace the inside of the glass instead for a beautiful effect.
