Chocolate "olives"

[bvus]

I was at a store that sold olives and I saw a package that looked like olives but it said they were "chocolate olives". I thought they might be chocolate covered olives or chocolate stuffed olives. That sounded pretty disgusting to me so I figured I had better investigate further. They ended up being chocolate covered almonds that looked very much like olives.

They looked like this:

I tried putting one on a cocktail fork in a chocolate martini that was made with Ketel One Vodka with a splash of clear Creme de Cacao. It looked just like a regular martini. Pretty cool. It needed to be consumed relatively quickly though as the liquid melted the chocolate olive after a little while.

I believe the correct garnish for a chocolate martini is a Milk Dud.

Or a Hershey's Kiss depending on what recipe you are going by.

Yes. I understand the conventional way of preparing the drink. This is slightly different visually. This is a chocolate garnish that functions like the Milk Dud or the Hersey's Kiss in the drinks you describe but looks like an olive. If you use a clear chocolate liquor as the chocolate component of the flavoring of the liquid portion of the mixture, it looks very much like a conventional, classic martini.
