Holiday Drink Recipe: Barbarella's Peppermint Chocotini

Patch brings you one recipe a day for the 12 days of Christmas from area bartenders.

We traveled into La Jolla Shores to get today's drink recipe. Barbarella's serves a delicious Peppermint Chocotini with chocolate rim. It is full of Christmas cheer!

Barbarella's gave this tip for the chocolate rim. They said to melt the chocolate, place the melted chocolate on a small flat dish, and roll the rim of the martini glass in it.
