Birthday’s are a special day, let’s celebrate with this Birthday Cake Martini! This creamy cocktail taste like birthday cake and is garnished with a sprinkle rim!
Have you noticed there always seems to be a birthday around the corner? That’s why I thought I’d share this Birthday Cake Martini with you. It’s the perfect way to celebrate someone’s special day.
Birthday Cake Martini:
I love this cocktail because the combination of ingredients makes it a cake in drink form. While the flavors of this martini alone are sweet and delicious, the sprinkles on the rim add color, fun, and memorable detail.
If you like this martini recipe, you’ll love my Birthday Cake Shot as well. It’s so delicious and has a frosting and sprinkles rim. You can grab that recipe here.
How to Add Sprinkles to a Glass:
To make sure your sprinkles hold on tight to the glass, rim it in honey. The honey also provides another layer of sweetness. Now, this cake-inspired martini only needs a candle. And don’t think I didn’t consider it, I just couldn’t figure out the logistics.
After just one sip, there’s no doubt a celebration is happening.
Birthday or not, let’s shake one up!
If you liked this martini recipe, here are a few more:
- The Perfect Cosmo
- Pear Martini
- Birthday Cake Shot – so good!
- Raspberry Cheesecake Martini
- Caramel Apple Pie Martini
Those sprinkles are something else, aren’t they? I’m thinking that all martinis need a sprinkle rim.
I hope you enjoyed this recipe. And if it happens to be YOUR birthday, consider this martini yours. Cheers!

No need for a birthday to enjoy this amazing cocktail! It’s SO good! Any excuse will suffice! It’s simple to mix up, and it makes a perfect dessert cocktail no matter what the occasion. This is now one of my favorite martinis! Thank you for this recipe!
Omg these are the best!!! But careful they sneak up on you . Expensive but well worth it. Watch out on number 3 with these
What would be a good substitute for the half and half – making this for my lactose intolerant husband’s birthday 🙂
Hey Michael,
I rimmed it with pink frosting and dipped it in sprinkles, amazing!!!
Looks great! But what is whipped vodka?
It’s a flavor of vodka. 🙂
