I want a drink. What should I have?

Has someone come up with an Obama martini?

1. I found an "Obamatini" recipe!

Angela Davis' Obamatini
For those of you looking for a new cocktail for the New Year (and who isn't?), how about this from WCCO morning anchor, bon vivant and all around fun gal Angela Davis. (I really love the modifications.) For the record, Angela's imaginative efforts behind the bar are non-partisan –- although she found this year's inaugural cocktail especially easy to name.

She writes that she "put together this recipe for a drink in Barack Obama’s honor."

1 shot of Stoli Vanilla vodka
1 shot of Godiva Dark Chocolate Liqueur

Angela adds: "Fill your shaker with ice, toss in these two ingredients, shake it up and there you have it. After he won the presidential election, I started adding a maraschino cherry. I've also thrown in a splash of Kahlua to mix it up a bit. Or you can add a little Starbucks coffee liqueur to modify the taste. If it's too strong for you, throw in some Hershey's chocolate syrup. Really."

Yumm!
