📝 Notes
- For a salted caramel martini, add a pinch of sea salt to the shaker before shaking.
- If using cookie dough vodka, reduce caramel to ¾ oz and omit vanilla extract.
- Heavy cream creates a richer, thicker cocktail.
- Cold foam creates a lighter, café-style finish.
- Whipped topping makes it more indulgent and dessert-like.
- For extra flavor, sprinkle a tiny pinch of flaky sea salt over the caramel drizzle.
