You should be right with the chockies, but luckily taste.com.au can help with the cocktail ideas.

Here are some of the best to try that you are unlikely to have thought of before.

Choc-mint mudslide cocktail

Add a cool new twist to the classic creamy mudslide cocktail with mint liqueur and choc-mint ice-cream. It’s the perfect dessert-meets-drink idea to finish off your party menu.

Musk sticks margarita

Margarita with a sweet retro twist is just what your next party needs. You will need to allow 1-2 days for infusing, so prep ahead.

But trust us – it’s worth it.

Easter is about more than just eggs, evidently.

Hot cross bun Bailey’s cocktail

For the ultimate (adult) Easter treat, try this seriously decadent Bailey’s infused chocolate cocktail! We are drooling!

Start by threading hot cross buns on to eight small skewers. Melt butter in a medium frying pan over medium-high heat. You are now on your way.

Baileys Caramello cocktail

Dessert or drinks? You decide with this easy Irish Cream and ice-cream mash up cocktail. Loaded with caramel sauce and topped with caramello chocolate, it’s the sweetest way to end the party.

FULL RECIPE

Creme egg martini

Celebrate Easter with a sweet and creamy cocktail, full of vanilla and butterscotch flavours and served in a creme egg rimmed glass.

Start by dropping the vanilla bean pod into the bottle of vodka and leave to infuse for 24-36 hours.

Crème brûlée cocktail

We’ve turned the famous custard and caramel dessert into a cocktail, perfect for your next party!

Line a baking tray with foil. Place the sugar and 80ml (1/3 cup) water in a small saucepan over low heat and stir until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to medium and cook, without stirring, for 3-4 minutes or until dark golden.

Gaytime martini

Passion star martini

If there’s one cocktail that will grab your attention it has to be this one. Inspired by the controversial pornstar martini (find out why it’s so named below), our version of this tropical cocktail features passionfruit, vanilla vodka, prosecco and a splash of lime for a drink to remember.

A creamy martini cocktail shaken with Violet Crumble honeycomb caramel-flavoured milk, butterscotch schnapps and vodka, then topped with whipped cream and Violet Crumble honeycomb caramel chocolate. It’s the perfect party starter or an after-dinner treat.
