Friends, these are strange days indeed but remember, we’re all in this together — even when we’re getting quarantipsy far apart. Stay healthy, stay safe, and stay frosty.
Ingredients
- 1/3 Can of full-fat coconut milk (or whatever milk or cream or creamer you have)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- One or two shots whatever booze ya got (I used whiskey but you could use vodka, bourbon or rum)
- 2-3 squares of a chocolate bar (I used vegan dark chocolate)
- 1 tbsp instant coffee granules
- 1 cup ice
- 2 tbsp + 1 tsp Maple syrup
Instructions
- Add your chocolate into a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 20-second intervals, stopping to stir, until fully melted.
- Add your coffee granules into the melted chocolate and whisk until dissolved.
- Add 1 tsp maple syrup to the chocolate mixture and whisk until smooth.
- Add all remaining ingredients into a high-speed blender and pulse blend using the ice crush setting or highest setting until the mixture is smooth and frothy.
- Stir your chocolate mixture and pour it into a serving glass. Pour your blender mixture into it so it swirls with the chocolate mixture.
- Enjoy immediately or store in your refrigerator for up to an hour before drinking.
Notes
If you don't have a blender that can crush ice, you can make a slightly different--but still delicious--cocktail with all the same ingredients. When you reach the blender instructions step #4 on) in the recipe, add those ingredients to a tall glass instead of a blender and whisk them together well with a spoon -- so the maple syrup and coconut milk blend together. Add your chocolate mixture to another tall glass. Top it with your ice cubes. Pour the coconut milk mixture over the ice and serve.
