Ingredients

Creating the Cocktail

  • 1 Ounce chilled espresso
  • 1 Ounce Kahlua
  • 1 Ounce vodka
  • 1/2 Ounce milk
  • 1 Ounce premium chocolate liqueur

Directions

Creating the Cocktail

Shake vigorously. For extra ammo add another shot. Note: Creator, Alex Schalchlin, explains when making cold cocktails with espresso, the espresso needs to be chilled. Using a fresh shot will water down the drink.

Chocolate Shopping Tip

There are so many varieties of chocolate on the shelves today it can be overwhelming to pick one – as a general rule of thumb, the fewer the ingredients, the better the chocolate.

Chocolate Cooking Tip

When melting chocolate, use a double boiler and stir occasionally to avoid scorching chocolate at the bottom of the bowl.

Sweet chenin blanc, muscat, or amontillado sherry with nut-based desserts; sauternes or sweet German wines with pound cake, cheesecake, and other mildly sweet desserts; sweet chenin blanc or muscat or Alsatian vendange tardive (late harvest) wines with sweeter desserts; sweet chenin blanc or muscat or Alsatian vendange tardive (late harvest) wines, port, madeira, late-harvest zinfandel, or cabernet sauvignon or cabernet franc with chocolate desserts.
