Your exclusive invite to the Golden Globe Awards didn't show up (again) in the mail, but you can sip a cocktail that some of your favorite celebs sampled at The Weinstein Company and Netflix's Golden Globes afterparty. When we had the opportunity to attend, it was like getting into cocktail heaven. Each cocktail was inspired by Lindt EXCELLENCE flavor and has a subtle chocolate element. Ahead, four drinks inspired by the expertly mixed and seriously elegant cocktails, slightly adjusted for making at your own award show celebration.

Kissed Black and Blue
At the afterparty, this clean and herbal drink featured a round ice cube with cucumber frozen inside and was finished with a nitrogen-frozen orange and blueberry garnish. Make your own spin with fresh blackberries and chocolate-truffle-infused whipped cream that's the perfect combo of sweet and tart.

Spicy Sipper
Using red chili peppers drizzled with dark chocolate makes this spicy sipper more than your basic martini; it's a really elegant drink.

Sweet Orange Lotus
At the party, this drink was lit on fire and smelled just like Winter with a powerful cinnamon-orange scent. It tasted creamy and subtle thanks to the almond syrup, but the orange brûlée made the drink. Make it at home with a brûléed orange slice. Serve over ice or straight up to your couch-watching guests.
