Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 50 grams Dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher)
- 120 ml Whole milk
- 60 ml Heavy cream
- 45 ml Vodka
- 30 ml Coffee liqueur (e.g., Kahlúa)
- 0.5 tsp Vanilla extract
- 6 Ice cubes
- 4 tbsp Whipped cream
- 1 tsp Grated chocolate or cocoa powder (for garnish)
Instructions
Finely chop the dark chocolate and set aside.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the whole milk and heavy cream. Gently warm the mixture, stirring frequently, until small bubbles form around the edges. Do not let it boil.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the chopped dark chocolate. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
Allow the chocolate mixture to cool slightly for 2-3 minutes.
In a cocktail shaker, combine the cooled chocolate mixture, vodka, coffee liqueur, vanilla extract, and ice cubes.
Secure the lid tightly on the shaker and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds to thoroughly mix and chill the drink.
Strain the cocktail evenly into two chilled martini or coupe glasses.
Top each serving with a dollop of whipped cream and garnish with grated chocolate or a sprinkle of cocoa powder.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Lovers Creamy Chocolate Cocktail!
