Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 50 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 250 grams Granulated sugar
- 250 milliliters Water
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 250 milliliters Vodka
- 50 grams Dark chocolate (finely chopped)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, and water.
Whisk the mixture over medium heat until the sugar dissolves completely and the cocoa is fully incorporated. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Add the finely chopped dark chocolate and stir until melted and smooth.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.
Once cooled, stir in the vanilla extract and vodka. Mix well to combine.
Pour the chocolate liqueur into a sterilized glass bottle or jar with a tight-fitting lid.
Seal the bottle and store it in a cool, dark place for at least one week to allow the flavors to meld. Shake the bottle gently every day during this period.
After one week, strain the liqueur through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any solids, if desired.
Serve the chocolate liqueur chilled or at room temperature. It can be enjoyed on its own, added to coffee, or used in creative cocktails.
