This peppermint bark martini is a decadent, festive dessert cocktail to cap off your night this holiday season! With a chocolate and candy cane rim, you'll want to make this drink over and over again.
This was inspired by my Peppermint Espresso Martini, which is another festive cocktail, but not everyone wants something with caffeine to end their night, and this is a bit of a sweeter drink.
